I've noticed that when I degauss one of my monitors here at work, it causes the monitor next to it to dance a little, as well. Why? What's happening when I do it?

A gauss is an old measurement of magnetic flux, magnetic flux builds up on the crt after some time becasue of the elctromagnetic generation from emitting electrons. The degauss removes some of the magnetic build up.

OK, but why does that mess with my other monitor, too?

I believe it's because of the "waves" or whatever you want to call them created when the degauss takes place... I'm sure if you placed a TV next to it, it would probably do the same thing too.
more or less radiation? I think it's mostly magnetic waves though... which will effect any type of monitor like that which is that close.
its because of electro magnetic inteference, place a speaker next to your monitor and listen to the inteference. Place a ringing mobile (cell-phone) next to the monitor and the picture will be scarmbled. Most devices emit electro magnetic radiation.
