(the exact problem I am not clear on until I have some time to discuss,

too much distraction to get info last night) but the new board works great.

There is still a problem with the power to the inside lights, but for the 
event, it is workable.

Thank you so much.  People really love this flower, and it is hysterical

that they all think it is responding to them, even though we have a sign

that tells them that it is only a random program generating the movements, 
not their efforts.

I noticed there was a loose red wire and a open LED wire on the back of the 
flower.
there werent any soldering irons handy last night that I saw, or I would 
have resoldered
that connection. You could just try taping it up, not like that's the first 
time a RG project
has had taped wire connections.
