That's a lot of lights -- more than 100,000 lights make up a spectacular Christmas lights show in Levittown's Willowood section. Neil DiSpirito lives at 1 White Spruce Lane and has been welcoming spectators to his home for 18 Christmas seasons. The house stays lit up from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. for roughly 30 days this season, but on Christmas Eve DiSpirito said the lights stay on through the night. This year's presentation opened up on Dec. 4, but work putting up all those Christmas lights and decorations began well before that on Oct. 1. DiSpirito said he is not one to take credit for all the work. He has dozens of volunteers who come and help out every year, working various shifts. DiSpirito said he even took off work the month of November …
