I'll be glad to. :-)

For the movement of the individual fireflies, I used this script:

/54/0c/9803/1.html

The only modification I added was that when a firefly senses another firefly, it flashes its light.

I put the firefly object in an object that rezzes a new firefly every few seconds. The fireflies have a life of 300 s, so I have to keep rezzing new ones to replenish the population. The firely script also handles keeping the fireflies in the general area of the rezzer.
