Sun died grass
I just thought I would share a little problem I have had.
For years now during the summer a strip of dead grass has appeared in my back yard. I had assumed that there was a 2x4 buried there from the construction. I probed for it but never found it. I found it last week. A bright sunny reflections was on one end of it. It seems the sun light in the evening is reflecting off a window which just happens to have a shape that is focusing the light. As the sun moves each day it creates a line. The extra heat (and it is quite warm) is just enough to kill the top grass. I had not noticed it, but the line moves a little over the summer as the sun moves in the sky. I am going to try switching windows with another of the same size in hopes that it will not focus the light. -- Joseph E. Meehan 26 + 6 = 1 It's Irish Math |

Wonder why it doesn't happen more often, come to think of it. |
