THREE pops? come on, people! This is awesome.
thanks for the clip, deusdiabolus!

Awesome indeed! Can you imagine painting a room with this stuff? All night long it glows.

WAY Bloody cool! Pop,pop,pop,pop,pop,pop...

I wonder if you can add it to shampoo?

Now THAT was great!

contact lenses.

I can pop only once.

Imagine if everyone painted their homes with this stuff? It would look like night vision technology all the time.

I wonder if they can make them any stronger. Be cheaper, and safer than neon. Rather than being turned on and off, it could be covered and uncovered.
Great for Christmas lights without worrying about a spare bulb.(or electrocution.) I wonder if it can be made into roller blinds. Light up the room, and while people outside couldn't see what you were doing, they'd be more likely to think you were having fun.

very, very cool!

I thought I recognized this - camping shop has sticks that glow for 5 years

WARNING RADIOACTIVE

From the patent application:

"The present invention provides self luminosity by means of a plurality of glass or polymer microspheres containing both a light-emitting phosphor and a radioactive gas."

That gas is going to be Tritium since it is a pure beta emitter and emits very low energy betas. The only real danger with tritium is if it combusts and forms tritiated water which can be a very serious health concern since water is readily absorbed and incorporated in the body. There is a plus side to Tritium contamination, the cure is to drink a lot of water (beer).

need to make light switch covers outt this stuff !!!

OK this is gunna sound silly comin from me of course, but how 'bout a BONG?
Maybe a Clitoris?

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah...........that was priceless.

Willhelm, how cool would that be? Very.

How bout on roads, so people do less of the crashing.

This will definitely help us become greener!

How bout on roads, so people do less of the crashing.

That is a great idea, especially on dark highways. I wonder if would attract wildlife, though. We could be trading one problem for another.

very cool!
