Wizards of Winter Real Says Snopes

Updating my previous entry about the "Wizards of Winter" video. Tha Snopes-dogg has determined that the lighting display shown in the video is real; it just looks animated because of compression issues.

For those of you who, like me, are now being pestered by their wives to create an animated Christmas light display (complete with a low-power FM transmitter to broadcast musical accompaniment) here's a link to Light-O-Rama, manufacturer of lighting controllers and sequencers: http://www.lightorama.com/

Of course, if you really want to do it up right, you could rent a 96 channel rolling rack, a few hundred Ks of PARs, some VLs and MACs, and a GrandMA to keep it all under control. Then call the boys in the TSO and see if they're available to perform "Wizards of Winter" twelve times a night on your front lawn. That'll show Flanders! (stupid Flanders...)
