I didn't know if this was already posted somewhere, but this is a really great Christmas Light Display

I heard on the news the other day that someone somewhere had music with their lights and were ordered to shut the noise off - perhaps that one.

That was interesting to watch, but I really don't think I could handle living near them and seeing it for hours.

The family with that display was on one of the morning talk shows a week or two ago. I think the guy is some kind of electrical engineer or something, if I remember correctly. They only have it on a limited amount of time per day and have the consent of all the neighbors. Whew!
That would definitely be a bit much all the time, although having gotten my degree in lighting design, I probably have a bit of a higher tolerance for it than many.
