Glow in the Dark Minerals

I love things that glow in the dark. They discharge a kind of creepy, mysterious aura when they glow. I have some glow-in-the-dark plastic stars stuck on the ceiling of my bedroom (my aim was to make a galaxy but I got lazy and I broke the spring of my bed). The latest glow in the dark stint I saw was in the music video of Black Eyed Peas' song: I Gotta Feelin, where the party crowd dipped their hands and painted their faces with glow-in-the-dark paint.

Have you seen real natural minerals that actually glows in the dark? Some of these are found in a dark "room" (barely even a room, more like a tiny stall) in OUMNH. Check it out!

I waited quite sometime for the kids to finish hogging the stall just to get this picture. Cool eh?
