A Simple Request
Attention world: please stop talking about nanotechnology.
Novel materials, regardless of lengthscale, should be tested to determine their impact on health and ecology. This was as true for the cavemen as it is for us. As such, articles such as, "Nanotechnology Regulation Needed, Critics Say" are misleading wastes of everyone's time.

If only you were listening to the Don and Mike show right now. They're talking to a guy who calls himself "Dr. Nanite" and is promoting both his self-replicating machine patent ($20m investment needed, please) and his nanotechnology-themed guitar rock album.

If only, indeed.

Thank you. This lady came to my school to talk about nanotechnology, she's a nanotechnology teacher at a community college (?!) and like ten people came (free doughnuts).
It was sad.
