Sorry, but I'd rather not get that freebie.

but you do that (the material) by making a blinn material with (if you are using software rendering) a glow turned up about to 0.7, with a reflecrivity of about 0.7, and a color of very bright green.

Make sure raytracing is turned on in your Render Globals.
