Larry,

Hard to tell from this photo but could either be a Moth Fly (not a moth)
or 4701 Planthopper Parasite Moth, Fulgoraecia exigua.  I'm inclined to
think the later.  See my page below for more.

This little moth came to my porch light in Johnson City, TN on 9-6-10. I 
haven't even been able to figure out which family it's in. It's length is 8 mm.
