	Try a bigger magnet.  But be ready to by a new lcd.

	The "liquid crystals" are affected by magnetic fields.  The LCDs
on certain medical equipment like MRIs have to be replaced periodically 
because they start to bleed green and purple lines.

	Think about it.  They use magnetic fields to align the crystals to
pass light.  You just need a strong enough magnet.
