Wait - -Don't let fear of the unknown keep us from moving forward, - is what you say when you're on an adventure, or trying to step out of your comfort zone. It's NOT meant to be applied to situations which could cause irreversible harm to people or the environment! You have GOT to be able to weigh the severity of consequences with your actions, and far too often people haven't done that - they used to dump nuclear waste into the ocean right off the east coast, for example. If something like this has the risk of possible harm, it should be tested in its entirety first before introducing it to people and the environment. Greed keeps people from doing what's necessary to protect people and the environment, and it sounds like this is another example. Greed makes people disregard potential destructive consequences and go forward anyway to find out the hard way. Humans are pretty smart - we could develop a new way of doing things if we wanted. It's only greed that prevents people from doing so. Gotta get those nano-materials to market, right? Sounded interesting until you revealed that no one knows how much harm they could cause. We have a responsibility to figure that out first when introducing man-made things into the environment.

Ppl need to stop being so happy and so ignorantly one-sided when they hear about new technology and all the cool things it can do. This technology is being used at this very moment to enslave ppl and develop new methods of mind control for future populations. Look up Targeted Individuals and understand what the government is up to. We need to oppose this technology or come up with laws to regulate it right away!

I have been watching this series over the past few weeks and the host has seemed a bit off to me I just couldn't pinpoint why. But I believe I've figured it out: the intervals between her blinking are oddly long. Just something I've noticed.

That animation of hitting the computer to reveal its contents is too similar to that one game where a person keeps punching its computer because its broken

Our class wants to know: How can scientists work with things they cannot see? How do they place nanothings under a microscope?

lol, my phone lasts 3-5 days, ans still 6-10h when running a CPU benchmark and using it as a handwarmer. (vernee thor plus)
