imho that makes no sense...
if you need a lightsource that doesn't cast shadows, you need to add 
"shadowless" to your light_source

oh, and gonzo: if your texture has an ambient of 1 and still looks dark, 
then either your pigment is dark or your global ambient light is set too 
low (just leave that at 1, no need to change it)

cu!
