My seven year old daughter had the blue light treatment just after birth. At
the time, we joked that she was a Blue Light Special (that's a Kmart thing
for those that don't remember!)
Anyway, you are right, with the lights down, and the blanket on, they do
look quite cool.
I took several pictures and they are in her photo album.
I have discovered though, that whenever she sees those pictures in her
album, she gets violently upset to the point of crying. We have never
figured out why.

A good way to threaten somebody is to light a
stick of dynamite. Then you call the guy and
hold the burning fuse up to the phone.
"Hear that?" you say. "That's dynamite, baby."
