Didn't read the article. Read now. That was it.
Definitely. The color is very memorable. Fun story about this stuff. When I was in college we did a project where we poured some of this in a stream to track the water flow. The professor didn't specify how much to use so we dumped in the whole bottle. We ended up turning the whole stream neon green for over 3 miles and the school got a call from the EPA. Oops.
