Im trying to help a friend who is trying to help his sister create a 2-LED random flashing "fireplace", basically he is using 2 led's that go on and off randomly to simulate the flickering of a fire, his sister is using it for some architecture project.

My question is, do you guys know of an available IC, that will easily create the randomness to light up the led's? I was hoping I could just tell him to go buy a part from radio shack or the like... However if you guys know a way to build one of these that would be cool too.

Thanks for any help!

edit: Just noticed another thread that is similar to this one, however its alittle above my head. So if someone could possibly simplify it for just 2 leds, i would be very appreciative... thanks
