Something a little more accurate upon those lines.

Vanagon content: Would like some information on improving night visibility.
More so, additional lighting..

A lesser known but very relevant verse is VI.97

In her 'The Final Prophecies of Nostradamus', Warner Books , reprinted in
1995 , Erika Cheetham gives an interpretation that shows that this verse is
not just dragged up because it fits.
     "New York lies between 40 and 45 degrees parallel in the USA. It is
     often referred to by Nostradamus as the Cite neufue, which was its
     contemporary name during Nostradamus time. It appears that the attack
     on the city is very widespread, instant grand flamme espase sautera."


This verse connects to verse X49
