A math riddle....

Ok, here's a math riddle that will keep your brain working until all hours of the night. :)
You have eight pennies. All are exactly the same weight except one, which is slightly lighter. If you are given a balance scale, how, in only two moves, can you determine which is the lighter penny?
It is possible, I assure you.
I'll give you the answer later...sometime in the next couple of days!
Have fun! Oh, and I'd love to know who (if anyone) figures it out!
Blessings!

Where is everyone? Don't tell me that no one can figure it out....:P
