This is about two weeks old so the quasiomniscient Anders Sandberg may have already posted this and i missed it. If this is the case, i apologise for the noise.

pre-print of an article published in the January 99 issue of Trends in
Biotechnology.

No new science but like anything written by Drexler, good for the soul :) chau
