The illumination Apocalypse decreasing every year more extreme forms. When it goes around Christmas, knows an upright American homeowners do not change and no energy-saving lamps, as is his electricity bill regardless of the night and sleep the neighbors: It must blink, twinkle and shine, in rhythm as schauerlicher Christmas Muzak.
The now legendary "Griswold House", at the sound of the instrumentals "Wizard of Winter" was the Lichtlein dance, and its creator, or better lighting Carson Williams briefly famous, was only the beginning.
Today there are in the USA, a nationwide competition between private individuals, an animated country from incandescent lights, inflatable Santa Claus, animated reindeer and, of course, want to create garlands.

Cox is an electrical engineer, and one sees his current work at Christmas. The couple from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, with body and soul to the thing, and not just since yesterday.
