There are two types of people in this world:
1. Good people.
2. Those who leave a spent K cup in the Keurig coffee maker and don't refill the water tank.
I just realize this morning, I'm #2. I live alone, no one else to blame.

First, pos-neg gating. Ideal controls are your actual antibodies on the actual cells. However different antibodies bind different cells (see: CD4 vs XCR1 below), meaning they have different backgrounds to control. AutoSpectral matches the FSC-SSC of each pos to a suitable neg: with results!
