Removing Permanent Marker From Your LCD

Removal Procedure
OK, my ten year old son made me a birthday card on a big sheet of construction paper with black permanent magic marker (Sharpie) and leaned the "card" up against my one-month old 2405FPW. It wasn't dry yet.
Thankfully, there as only one spot left on the monitor. Dead center about the size of a grain of rice. You can imagine my shock and surprise. I took some 90% alcohol and a Q-Tip to it. It came right off (thank God).
Thought I would post here with this fix in case it ever happens to anyone else. I know I was sweating bullets thinking that I had an eyesore for the next 6 years and would see it everytime I used this monitor. The alcohol not only took it off, but it didn't hurt the LCD finish either. After I got the marker out I used some iKlear Apple Polish purchased at The Apple Store and it is good as new!
