Now that's interesting. Kurzweil (1999) is highly "bearish" on quantum computing, saying that (future) quantum computing is to digital computing as a hydrogen bomb is to a firecracker. (p. 112). Now imagine nano- or just miniature robots with quantum artificial brains and quantum energy supplies. Before 2099 he expects supercomputing power to be microscopic in size. (p. 257). Bill Joy's "nanophobia" in spades. Moratorium on nanotech? Nano-chance of this I would say. The best we can hope for is some guidelines on genetic and reproductive technologies from Mssrs. Manley and Rock. How is that new legislation coming along?

Conventional antennas employ either metal to support antenna currents necessary for radiating electromagnetic fields or dielectric materials (e.g. plastics such as teflon) to redirect or reform an electromagnetic wavefront.

(2000-04-01 23:22:20) http://www.processtree.com/?sponsor=13169 The ProcessTree Network was created to bring two groups together: those who have huge computing jobs to do; and millions whose computers just sit idle much of the time. With the ProcessTree Network those BIG computing jobs can get done faster and cheaper, and people can turn there computers idle time into money.

(2000-03-29 23:18:01) http://www.quantumfields.com/ According to quantum field theory every point in space contain a unlimited amount of energy. On this web site Quantum Fields LLC explain how they plan to power micro-machines with this energy. Comments : 1 Credits to: Knud Digital Inter Relay Communication (DIRC) (2000-03-22 15:43:23) http://www.dirc.net/development/index.html The basic idea of DIRC is a self learning, intelligent, and self organising network of small transmitting and receiving stations which operate permanently for the network. The links between the DIRC´s are build up on radio transmission links. Subscribers in the DIRC network communicates with each other by assistance of the relay functions of DIRC stations in between. Comments : 0 Credits to: Knud New approach to levitating trains. (2000-01-19 18:12:07) http://www.llnl.gov/str/Post.html Lawrence Livermore scientists have recently developed a new approach to magnetically levitating high-speed trains that is fundamentally much simpler in design and operation (requiring no superconducting coils or stability control circuits), potentially much less expensive, and more widely adaptable than other maglev systems. The new technology, called Inductrack, employs special arrays of permanent magnets that induce strong repulsive currents in a "track" made up of coils, pushing up on the cars and levitating them.
