Thanks for the response!

I am thinking about it...  I just took apart one those dimming halogen
lamps and noticed that they do an elegant chopping thing with a RLC
circuit somehow (I don't understand the circuit).  I figured if there were
an easy way to simulate the variable resistor in the circuit it would be
nice.  Any clues there?
