On the TV show ReGenesis, the scientists constantly scribble with markers on big, transparent boards — here's a clip, and here's another. I am guessing that they are using fluorescent wet-erase markers, perhaps in combination with a black-light lamp to make the paint visible in such low light. Where can I buy a setup like this?

CSIFilter: On CSI, and other crime shows, you see the investigators holding a sheet of orange plastic in front of their field of view when using a blacklight to look for trace evidence. Sometimes, orange sunglasses are used instead. Does anyone know what these glasses would be called, and where I can get some? My google-fu is failing me.
