I have pictures of my daughter with Reveille from a veterinarian summer camp she went to between her Junior and Senior year in HS.

Beautiful dog

Sure-I work in that field. Can't say details but the the amount of information a proton can hold is tremendous.

Did you see the article about the first nano machine?  Let me see if I can find it.

Here it is

I think it should be like back when Art did  the the show for five hrs...The guest has the  option of staying on for the final hr providing the guest isn't  off the show earlier for whatever the reason

You are right.

It honks me off that UGA and TAMU haven't even played each other yet in the SEC. I think every other school in the conference has already.

I think he did have the option. He started talking about how tired he was after hour 2.

I gotta get up there and see a baseball game. They are ranked 1 or 2 right now.

Did the caller say where this Mantis alien abduction took place?

[GravitySucks]

I think it's paywalled.

Yeah, it just told me I had viewed my limit of free articles. Probably need to delete cookies and clear the cache.

I found an alternate but you have to close a pop up ad all the time.

"Professor David Leigh, of the University of Edinburgh's School of Chemistry, said: "Our machine has a device -- or "ËÅ"demon' if you like -- inside it that traps molecule-sized particles as they move in a certain direction. Maxwell reasoned that if such a system could ever be made it would need energy to work. Without energy, it might appear that the perpetual motion of the molecules could power other devices in the same way as a windmill, but Maxwell reasoned that this would go against the second law of thermodynamics.

"As he predicted, the machine does need energy and in our experiment it is powered by light. While light has previously been used to energise tiny particles directly, this is the first time that a system has been devised to trap molecules as they move in a certain direction under their natural motion. Once the molecules are trapped they cannot escape."

Applications of the nanotechnology machine could include trapping molecules to generate a force in front of a solid object using a laser pen. By shining the pen in the direction you want the object to move, the force of the molecules could be harnessed to push the object along.

I wonder how long before we can encrypt a quark?

[GravitySucks]

Alright. Night y'all. Enjoyed the chat.

ok..Thanks for filling me in...I dozed off in my lazy boy rocking chair

Here it is

There are a few local Universitys with nanotech programs, the one closest to me is UC Irvine.

http://engineering.uci.edu/dept/chems/research/nano

If you click on the faculty links, it gives you an idea of what kind of work people are doing right now.
IMO the main application is in developing "molecular nets" that can catch very small particles.

Would CO2 capture from the atmosphere be an application of that kind of tech?

[Mind Flayer Monk]

So was that 8 callers in the final hour?

60 minute final hour - 10 minutes of commercials = 50 minutes of programming / 8 callers = average of 6.25 minutes per caller.

Only thing I know of is to catch radiation emissions from spent fuel.
I'm sure someone is selling that idea though-trees already do that and lots of tech $$ is wrapped up in imitating tasks nature already does for us.

How soon before we have nanotech that can do things like repairing materials.

I can't say. Definitely, the closer tech is material breakdown (think those chemicals you put down your drain to break up clogs).

People try to build "nano-scaffolds" to encourage faster building up of materials. Many things that fail to work fail because the body can't make its internal scaffold to support making some kind of material-or it makes something but its not "sticky" enough to catch the produced particles and mash them into a solid construction.

I saw an article for some type of carbon harvester that looked like huge fans with screens to act like a filter. It was about a month ago.

Our government will spend a billion dollars on this...the Russians will plant some trees.

Here is another good example from Dr. Nguyen on the UC Irvine list I posted:
"self-assembly and maturation process of viral capsids, which is a fundamental concept in virology and is of significant biomedical interest in nanotechnology and vaccine development"

The virus capsid is the hardened shell that prevents the virus from being broken up by our body's fluids. If we could figure out a way to make the viral capsid harder to form with nanotech, then the virus will never build up large enough numbers to kill us.

Wow! I didn't know president of Nintendo, Reggie Feels-A-Man was a fan. Thanks, Mr. Noory!

We're not in the show's demographic anymore. Even Art Bell alluded to this show being for old lonely men who are desperate to hear a female voice at night.

Now there's a softball pitch for a grand slam home run of a meme if I ever saw one. I'll defer to those with more talent in such matters
