Glo-product research for Burning Man 2001

I've just done a quick survey of Internet glow stores. I think I will save you some trouble. I think Glowstickfactory has the broadest selection of products, and is slightly cheaper on some things than these others that I checked.

• ExtremeGlow
• MegaGlow
• Glo-Net
• LiquidLight4Glow

However, don't miss the glow in the dark plastic pellets that you can use in your very own injection-mold project at Glo-Net.

Southern Sushi

This North Carolina sushi report in from Ryan Thornburg:

Every year some lucky journalist cons his editors in to letting him take a jaunt around the South searching for the Worlds Best Barbecue. Chapel Hill, NC, is often home to at least one place on the list. Now, for some unexplained reason, it is the home to a sushi boom. Popping up in the midst of coffee houses, pizza joints, and smoothievilles in the downtown area of this college town are two new sushi counters. However, from the taste of things, most Southerns will continue to use raw fish primarily as bait.
