#cloning #copying #realityhax #lifehax

I seem to recall ages and ages ago at a coffehouse-closish to my house getting in a chat with Howel(sp) about--science--I seem to recall him walking and declaring to me and those at the same shiny table: Holy shit I think we've found particles from the future, though the others on the team are working on this problem-

There was was also a beefy dude with kind of redish short hair possibly a leather jacket at the table as well-
The other guy there when I grumbled about costs of stuff going up 'n up: Don't worry were "close" to being able to make clones of stuff, and that were "close" to using nanites doing so-as well as perminantly fixing medical problems-

It started off about neutrons and had a side article about arsholiry in science--

Bringing me to my question(s):

Have we gotten "close" to cloning stuff? and what kind role would 'nanites' have in making kick arse--car parts, or rumps for rump roasts? I thought it was dificult to make super-small robots- much less show them a plate of general-tsoas chicken and expect them clone them to sell at safeway.

For folks in the Northern New Mexico area, I understand the Bradbury
Science Museum in Los Alamos has an exhibit on nanotech.

Another way is to harness existing biological systems to do the work.

Meanwhile, 3d lithography is making impressive strides (amazing to me
anyway), e.g. http://www.nanoscribe.de

I must have been mistaken, then. I thought that museum display was on LANL micro-management.

I feel so silly now.

"Bounded Rationality," by Pamela McCorduck, the second novel in the series, Santa Fe Stories, Sunstone Press, is now available both as ink-on-paper and as an e-book.

“The person, be it gentleman or lady, who has not pleasure in a good novel, must be intolerably stupid.”
― Jane Austen

As a survivor of the Nano Management, I'd say Micro Management is a huge
relief!
