Ministry of NanoEthics?

hlovy writes "Here's part of a blurb that promotes, Nanotechnology: Atom and Eve in the Garden of Eden," an upcoming conversation between Foresight Institute founder Eric Drexler and ETC Group head Pat Mooney: "Recent studies indicate that nanoscale materials now being commercialized pose potential hazards for human health and the environment." The "studies" were actually incomplete surveys of inconclusive toxicology reports, commissioned by ETC Group, itself. Even Greenpeace admits that no complete scientific study of the toxicity of nanomaterials has been yet been performed. Read Howard Lovy's NanoBot for commentary."

come on, at least a little originality for the lead in

maybe, from the innerspace-dept, or the and-I-thought-hobbits-were-small dept

OK, so both of those suck too, but I'm not getting paid to come up with this stuff.

"Nanoethics"

[djeaux]

When I saw this word, I immediately thought of politicians. Their "ethics" are definitely nano-scale!
