Projector Keyboard, Fluorescent Protein Comparison, and A Little Antiques Store

Today I Learned:
1) I got to try out a projector keyboard today! It worked... better than I expected, but still not well enough to want to use it.

2) There are really a lot of fluorescent proteins out there! Andy Halleran pointed me to this handy page, which has a ton of information on the various fluorescent proteins that have been made. http://ift.tt/1JDxMQc

3) ...of an awesome little antiques place near here. Actually, it's not that little -- it's solidly medium-size, but built like a labyrinth, which makes it fun to explore. There are lots of little back alleys and side rooms to check out. It seems to be a sort of rental place for antique sellers. I only caught snippets of relevant conversation, but I think antique dealers can rent sections to house and display their wares? As a result, every little niche has its own feel. For example, there's one corner all the way in the back that sells what are claimed to be authentic Hollywood props, stuff like John Wayne's hat or faux jewelry from the Titanic. Fun stuff!
