Take a look at this:

This company is literally right down the hill from me. I _WISH_ there
were enough interested folks to do a Pac-Man or Asteroids or...? theme.

If there is interest from enough folks, let me know - I have enough contacts
from my bar-owning days that I could approach with a proposition.

Guaranteed it won't be cheap - short runs never are.

EL tape. That guy made a tron outfit with it. Shouldn't be too hard to
decorate the celing with it. The only issue would be cost. Im not sure
how much per a 6inch by 1/2 section would cost. Someday i'll decorate
an arcade and have it glow with EL/ plastic (instead of glass) lcd type
display technology.

you can use any deturgent with a "whitener" in it... all it is is
phosphorous.

Something I'm planning to do (someday) is to build a narrow shelf just
below the ceiling, and run my Lionel "O" gauge trains around the perimeter
of my arcade room.

It'll allow me to setup my trains, which have been in storage for 30+ years,
and add a bit of character to the room.

Steve,

I've always always always wanted to do that!

I wanted to even cut a hole into the wall and paint a mountain on the wall
for the train to go through. I forgot all about that. get us some pics when
you do it.
