i was bringing home some flourescent tubes in the backseat of a VW bug as a kid, (dad was driving) and there was a rain storm outside the car, the tubes were 8' long, and stuck out the front window... i found by accident, that as i moved my hand along the tube, it would light up under my hand! my sister thought i was nuts, and my dad did not want to look in the rainstorm... (yes it was dark!!) there is a picture in an old life magazine, and i think it made it into the time life series on photography, of some protestors waiving tubes around under some high voltage lines... all lighted up!!
