Here's a bad idea: Scotland - Edinburgh - Hi-tech plan to shed light on graves

In an effort to draw more visitors to the Greyfriars Kirkyard cemetery, they're going to "illuminate" the graves.

'You know the names, but don't you often wonder what they did and what they looked like? There are a lot of amazing people buried in Greyfriars Kirkyard and we thought it would be invaluable for visitors to learn more about such historic figures.

'The plasma screens fit around the gravestone to show what they achieved in their lifetime and what they looked like.'
