  I just watched the first three seasons of The X-Files, and I still don't understand why they do this. I did some searching and apparently no one else knows why either, however there are many theories out there as to why. Can anyone here offer an explanation?

Wasn't that how they summoned 'Deep Throat' for information?
 
It's been a long time since I watched the show.

Arg.  Shitty jokes from a Decade ago?  This stone cold bad-ass disapproves.

@threemegabytes:  The purpose was to summon their contact within the shadow-government "Deep Throat", the color of the light is where the person (depending on the season) wants to meet them.
