oh im sorry, dame, i read that but i didnt remember whene i was reading later posts, but thousands of LEDs would be insane,
ive always wanted to build in one of those scrolling mesage machines so you could type in anything you wanted to, it would be hilarious........i love the scrollling break lights idea, lol
