	Probably the LED's would be the easiest to design around but
they would also require the highest drive currents.

	A back-lit LCD would have virtually no segment drive current
but would need a supply for whatever light source was used.  Do they
make large LCD digits that one can mount in a row?  If so, this would
be a good possibility.

	Right now, I am just digging for possibilities and will choose
one that appears to be optimal.
