SPACE!!

Oh wait, I'm a .trains guy.

Anyhow, I think this sounds like a really fun idea.  The 'ice-planet orange' and
'trans neon green' pieces would really light up under black light.

I'd suggest the various SPACE folks wear tshirts that would glow, too.

One small nit - isn't "black light" just UV?  Isn't UV light really hard on Lego
bricks?  Specifically, the white pieces that turn tan after too much exposure...
But, maybe for just a few days it wouldn't be that big of an issue.

I hope I can make it out there!

(...) For folks (like me) who have had crowns, caps or other dental work, just remember this.... if you smile in a dark room with UV lights, your smile is going to make you look like a smiling Halloween Jack-O-Lantern! Gary Istok (22 years ago, 28-Apr-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest)
