		<description><![CDATA[I was asked if I knew anyone working on brain augmentation. I don&#8217;t.  We are too early in the development phase of true nanotechnology.  You could say that all work and research going on now is part of the foundation of brain augmentation as well as life extension.
We are our brains. You can [...]

I&#8217;ve also noted a wide range of concepts linked to the [...]

As science and technology, especially nano technology, moves from the lab into the garage it can and will be used by both good, moral people as well as people more &#8230; shall we say, driven by personal needs over the needs of [...]

		<description><![CDATA[Looking around at the state of commercial nano, I&#8217;d say it is just getting started.  Some of us don&#8217;t really ascribe to the idea that using small particle materials is true nanotechnology, but that is the practical definition at the moment.  True nanotech is building things from atoms and molecules &#8211; not from [...]

		<description><![CDATA[Hydrogen Storage

We need to use Hydrogen for energy, but it is hard to store or transport safely.  This &#8220;invention&#8221; is a modification of one I did a few years back.  It stores gaseous hydrogen in tiny balls that retain the gas under high pressure and release it on command ( applied external magnetic [...]

I suspect I was more flexible in my younger years, but again, maybe the authors were just a bit better. I love William Gibson, Greg Bear and Walter Jon Williams.  But  I usually [...]

Science Daily had a story about two guys who rewrote Asimov&#8217;s 3 laws of robotics. See
Science Daily
They basically tried to bring the laws into the present and into the real world. I did not have a positive reaction and I&#8217;d [...]

For instance, humans don&#8217;t regulate human power. What you can get, you [...]

		<description><![CDATA[Just a note concerning Stirling engines. I recently became aware of them and how they are poised to take over the solar conversion field. Or at least they should.  Turns out these machines convert heat to electricity at 25% or twice the efficiency of silicon photovoltaic cells.  A Stirling engine converts a heat [...]

		<description><![CDATA[Hi,

For forty years I&#8217;ve waited for someone to get AI right and create something that actually asks a question instead of simulating the asking of a question.  I guess the reason is, we all thought it was more simple than it turns out to be. I suspect the problem is still not well thought [...]
