Walking along dark paths at night can be a little spooky.
Sure, streetlights are good, but they're not everywhere.
Night Paths are the latest craze. Simply add a long-lasting luminescent compound to concrete, and Viola! Glow In The Dark footpaths (sidewalks), so you can see where you're
going.

What about people who want to hide? |
|
| |
They can do it in the bushes, like everyone else. |
|
| |
Good idea, but "long-lasting luminescent compound" - do you have any in mind? Might be easier to find a luminescent algae or lichen. |
|
| |
Anything that lasts 8-10 hours, so it can recharge during the following day. |
|
| |
Nice idea but it would lead to light pollution so astronomers would not be very happy. |
|
| |
Surely less so than street lighting? |
|
| |
It'd also use up a lot of dark. |
|
| |
There's a viola built into the concrete? |
|
| |
Old joke, before your elf got here. |
|
| |
not quite what you envision UB, but you can buy little luminescent markers for the garden path shaped like mushrooms etc. |
|
| |
You have my elf? Can I have it back please? I'd trade a croissant... |
|
| |
They sell paving stones here which use solar power during the day to stay lit up all night. [link] |
|
| |
Your elf is just there, under that glowing mushroom, [saker]. |
|
| |
The path of enlightenment. Hehe! |
|

Even if it's just individual luminescent nuggets mixed in, or added as a topping before smoothing. Hollywood Chamber of Commerce spent more than a few bucks making Hollywood Blvd. glitter (non-luminescent) from @ Vine to La Brea. |

Night Vision is better. That way poor people can't afford
it. |

Kidding.. I'm a Kidder. (Sarcasm above) |
