An amazing Christmas Light Display

I don't think I've ever seen anything quite like this--it is only about an hour from my house, so I may try to go see it. According to the site I first heard about this, "This display was the work of Carson Williams of Mason, Ohio, who spent about three hours sequencing the 88 Light-O-Rama channels that control the 16,000 Christmas lights in his 2004 holiday lighting spectacular. The musical accompaniment is broadcast over a low-power radio station so that it is only audible to visitors tuned in to the correct frquency and doesn't disturb the neighbors."

What's love, er, chemistry got to do with it?

Love may be a "second hand emotion" as the old song goes, but this article tells us that it's also a pretty amazing bit of molecular chemistry, too. Now that we know what's going on, when will be be able to bottle and sell this?
