I got one of these so called 2D fluorescent tubes in a packet and bought it home 
on the train late in the evening. The trains are electric with cables overhead. 
What was strange was that the lamp was glowing dimly in the packet - I can only 
assume the E field from the overhead cables for the train was the source of power.
