Huh, interesting. I talked it over extensively with a friend of
mine (we've both been studying "Molecular Biology of the Cell" for
the last year), and it seems pretty plausible. I read a lot of the
forum posts as well, I'm pretty convinced these people know what
they are doing, and what they are doing is fascinating!<br>
<br>
I gave them $50, I'm gonna follow their experiment and I'll report
back here.<br>

<div>Basically, it's a kickstarter-style campaign to fund DIY
biological infrared vision. There had been some successes in
the past with their method, but it's never been taken as far
as they want to take it in humans.</div>

North Paw is #2, I found this in the sensebridge referrer
logs. We've had quite the spike in traffic!<br>
