Thanks, Dan. Sounds like a war zone! All I set off for New Year's was an Italian-made "Martinshorn" and a couple of Roman candles. Our town used to blow the fire horns at midnight, but they shut them off years ago. There were many fireworks, as well as gunshots, since I was in a rural area in northern California outside city limits. The vast majority of gun owners here are extremely responsible and careful, so it is certain that they were shooting into a target rather than "Saddam style" in the air (this is not Los Angeles). At least we don't have that guy hanging around anymore! (Bad pun?)

Nice work. Though I really enjoy the video with those two sirens being spun during the daytime, your video has better sound quality. Outstanding!
