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."

    We find your lack of faith disturbing.

    To demonstrate our power, we will dispatch nanites already stationed in the Slashdot servers to transpose the eighth and ninth characters in the 11th word of your post. Since you describe our business as "non-existent," we'll probably make that word as incorrect as your assumption.

    As a final masterstroke, or nanites will change your post's subject heading so that it does not refer to the NanoBusiness Alliance at all.

    Do not cross us again.

    Sincerely yours,

    Tsar
    Supreme Leader
    The NanoBusiness Alliance
