                          <b>Abstract: </b>In certain time-dependent
                          backgrounds there are nonstandard light
                          strings that are created classically at an
                          instant and cannot be approximated by
                          particles. We discuss the implications of
                          these strings to black holes and cosmology.</font><br>
