Nanotech and MVL - Have been interested in the area initially from a fundamental interest in quantum. I agree that it's early for much other than dead money. However, I have used the occasional hype periods of "get on the wagon" to hop onto NANX JMAR and TINY, but hop off at the next station!
I do find the idea of some day rearranging a few atoms and thereby transforming a pile of dirt into a commodity intriquing. Maybe Star Trek could do an episode on the world-wide economic havoc that would ensue! -0r- lots of Lex Luther criminal types for Superman to contend with in a battle for the "machine"!
Do I smell a new plot for the Daredevil??? Maybe we should be concerned with investing more in MVL than nanotech!
