Knowing the potential of exponential self replicating nano machines makes for a run a way system unless controlled by a computer.<BR/>He also mentions the potential reaction of those countries who do not have a nano weapon probably being in the position of preemptively attacking and destroying the country that posesses such a weapon in a move for survival.<BR/>Nice thoughts.john mccarthyhttp://johnmccarthy90066.tripod.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37932483.post-90467572339134414262007-05-29T13:22:00.000-04:002007-05-29T13:22:00.000-04:00It never ceases to amaze me at the unrepentant egos of scientist types, or really anyone who spent a long time learning stuff (like doctors). Because they worked hard what they think MUST be right. They can't even get genetically modified food to work right without organ damage and infection of non-GM crops. Why would they be able to do this any time soon? And why when cheap natural cures and proper diet solve most of the problems they are trying to fix? But that doesn't make a huge profit, which is what is all about.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37932483.post-60943550645093349132007-05-29T12:15:00.000-04:002007-05-29T12:15:00.000-04:00"The only "proof" I see in this article is its authors stupidity.
