Someone else replying to me said, in effect, that it wasn't anticipated the default state would run for so long. Sounds like somewhere along the line, they didn't think this all the way through.
Edit: Punctuation.

You make an excellent point. However, maybe the lights shouldn't be set to full-blast as the default mode. For instance, emergency lights (at least ones that I have encountered), don't offer as much light as normal lights, but enough to make things comfortably visible.

Designed to save energy and money by defaulting to always on. Interesting.

In Los Angeles, I began seeing wrong-way drivers several years ago, after years of never seeing them before. At the time, I figured it was the influx of newcomers from other states/cities/whatever.

I have to agree with you. Even now in the 21st century, a lot of "parents" have the mindset that children are property, not human beings. It's almost like chattel slavery, and the fact that so many people these days fail to see this is a huge problem is very disturbing.

What's wrong with someone making an informative comment, especially if the news is too lazy to find a photo of the actual species involved?
