The Candlebot string made me think of the little bots that hovered over the
heads of the royal house of Atrateese (sp?) from the movie Dune. They
followed them around and lit their path as they walked. As far as I can
remember, they had no lighting inside of their castle, only these little bot
companions.

(in dutch ;), called BiMetal). But what is it exactly?

Thnks,
