in Advent:

advent candles:

In Sweden those have four candles:

        ,  ,  ,  ,
        |  |  |  |
        |  |  |  |
        |  |  |  |
        |  |  |  | 
      o>8<<<>8<>>8<o
       \__________/

        @  ,  ,  ,
        |  |  |  |
        |  |  |  |
        |  |  |  |
        |  |  |  | 
      o>8<<<>8<>>8<o
       \__________/

hmmm... I suppose this is what it looks like today:

           ,  ,  ,
        ,  |  |  |
        |  |  |  |
        |  |  |  |
        |  |  |  | 
      o>8<<<>8<>>8<o
       \__________/

And the rest of them (yes, I know, I should post one each week but I'd
just forget...)

Then I started thinking. That would have to be a very slow animation...
But the idea is not totally useless, I made a little cgi script of it
that I put on my homepage. It will light one more candle each Sunday
until Christmas. On the last of those four Sundays the candles will
gradually burn down and be turned out. At midnight (Swedish time) all
four candles will be out.

Sometimes things happen if you have too much things at the candles:

Grrr. I had to go into dejanews to find the reason that Joan was bald.
And then when I had time, 6 hours later, to post a reply, all traces of
this thread were gone from my

that it was a hose to put out the flames on the other advent wreath that
