Nanotech Goes To Capitol Hill

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the gimme-some-pork-money dept.

akb writes "The Tech Law Journal has the rundown on a panel held on Capitol Hill by the Nanotech Business Alliance and the Progressive Policy Institute. The panel was intended to educate legislators and government agencies about nanotech and (of course) to drum up money to support research."

    Their technical contact is still Register.com, their administrative contact is a Yahoo.com address, they're hosted on Hostway (service starts at $17.95 a month for Windows hosting, and they're using Frontpage), they registered their domain in July and they only paid for one year ! How nearsighted are these people, and is theirs the star to which we want to hitch our nanowagon?

    Note: I have a low-rent hosting service too, but then again, I'm not lobbying Congress.
