And for those who don't want to read:

1. Tripod
2. Manual mode
3. Zoom lens (or whatever you've got!)
4. ISO 100
5. f/8 to f/20
6. SS 2 seconds or more (experiment with this one!) longer gives you the cool trails
7. No flash

I believe some point and shoots have a fireworks mode that might give you similar results/settings as above. Tripod is really necessary though! (or a steady surface)
