The guy must be a concert lighting guy, and must have all the "spare" equipment hooked up at his house over the holidays. I think there are at least 40 different independently controled circuits running fairly high wattage. You don't do that kind of stuff with an X10 module...

Probably one of those MIDI enable light controllers... Very cool

Just on the news this morning, there was a lookie looo accident in front of this house, and the emergency vehicles could not get to the accident, he was ordered to turn the lights off. Apparently his lawyer filed papers today to sue the city or something.

I should go out snap some pictures there are some pretty mean displays going on around here.

The funny one is the snowman and candycane that are inflatable. During the day they are clumps of lifeless vinyl on the ground, they basically look like red, white, and green trash.

Fun idea. House on Ambassador, 1 block north of Sharlands (off Robb exit) has the inflatable and a bunch of others.
