Well said Jeff. Me too. {8^D While discussing nanomachines with
a group of coworkers today, I noticed they didnt seem to understand
my comment that we already *have* nanomachines running around in
our bodies, repairing damage, taking out harmful...foreign nanomachines.
They were uniformly under the impression that nanomachines had to
be made of silicon, like 7 of 9's. They thought there is something
different about carbon based microrganisms and a replicating
assembler. Am I missing something, or is there some fundamental
reason why a replicating assembler must be made of something other
than carbon? Seems like carbon is an ideal material for that purpose. spike
