Ha! No less an authority than Howard Lovy proves them wrong. Next, he'll be manufacturing gray goo. . .and we don't even want to think about that. <br /><br />Congratulations, Howard.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5554620.post-1110230230920539962005-03-07T16:17:00.000-05:002005-03-07T16:17:00.000-05:00Howard,

As the father of a three year-old son and a five year-old daughter, I recently figured that both are likely to grow approximately one meter in the next 12 years. Given that a meter consists of one billion nanometers and 12 years consists of appromimately one billion seconds, I like to imagine them growing at the rate of nanometer per second ... it helps me treasure every moment with them. Now, if I could just find an AFM to track their progress on my closet wall.<br /><br />Jack UldrichJackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15188362847682109451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5554620.post-1110205362965466512005-03-07T09:22:00.000-05:002005-03-07T09:22:00.000-05:00Howard,

I actually set into motion a series of chain events whereby the specimen actually self-assembles, cell by cell. It's ingenious, I know! Thanks for your good wishes, and I shall inform the scientific and business communities of further breakthroughs as they develop.<br /><br />HowardHoward Lovyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04901713018468508005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5554620.post-1110130272002536612005-03-06T12:31:00.000-05:002005-03-06T12:31:00.000-05:00Howard...congratulations to you and yours...howeve...Howard...congratulations to you and yours...however, as a purist, I believe you would still characterize your joint process as "top down" not "bottom up!" The process did not build up from atom to atom....and it is not a fully " green' process...there is inefficientcy and waste ... only a portion of the DNA is being used ... agreed? Doesn't change the wonder in the process... just the characterization. Wish you both health.<br /><br />alan shalleckAShalleckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10408327098731695906noreply@blogger.com
