For you Cape Hatteras Lighthouse junkies that want to watch the imperceptible motion of the lighthouse now that it's on its way (10 feet, 4 inches yesterday), I offer this web link:

Some interesting articles from the Raleigh newspaper are archived here:

I especially like the lead lines on the 6/17/99 article:

"Explaining the relocation of Cape Hatteras Lighthouse to spectators sometimes sounds a little like a Dr. Seuss book. 
"Will they move it in a boat? No, the lighthouse will not float. 
"Will they move it through the sky? No, the tower will not fly."
