Limelight is a type of stage lighting once used in theatres and music halls. Although it has long since been replaced by electric lighting, someone in the public eye is still said to be "in the limelight". An intense illumination is created when a hydrogen/oxygen flame is directed at a cylinder of lime, which can be raised to white heat without melting. The light is produced by a combination of incandescence and thermoluminescence.

Oh, he's one interesting man, is Mr. Warner!

For instance, he actually went to a Christian school, but was alienated by what he saw as hypocrisy, and a religion that seemed to teach fear more than it taught virtues; sermons prophesying the Apocalypse had a lasting effect upon his outlook...
