dot among many other period alterations.

> I always thought they were popular because Blue light travels farther in
air and catches the eye. For those of us that require more than our alotted
share of attention, its an inexpensive alteration and they do look cool. No
matter how far away you are, when you see them, you know its gonna be worth
it to catch up and see what its attached to.

> As for legality, I ran into a problem here in NY where I was perceived as
a nuisance and denied NY plates. He said they are illegal because blue dots
are distracting.

> I got around it by siliconing some Aluminum foil to the back of the blue
dot so it did not glow. This got me through inspection without having to
remove it. Unfortunately the next weekend, I had the lens off and the foil
"accidently" fell off...
