Anyone go see it? I just drove out to Del Mar to check it out. I'm a bit late but it was still amazing. I hear closer to LA it's still pretty strong.

Felt like a beginner driver.

For those who haven't heard the news down here: The waves glow blue

I fact, every step on the sand glowed blue sort of like Michael Jackson's, 'Billie Jean', video in MTV in the 80s.

It's bioluminescence... In the lab we use those genes sometimes to track shit in experiments although these days there's a lot of synthetic glowy shit in use as well.

We have the same bio-luminescence on the VA coast, only it is more greenish. We do not have the giant waves like you showed but a night the caps of small waves flash green and if you toss in a rock, you see a flash where the rock enters the water.

What type of biotech do you work at?

All things genetics...

Here is an example of someone pedaling such tech:

@just_dregalicious Did you take that picture? Very cool.

No, I cribbed it from google but they look just like that.
