Nanotech Coating Prevents Fogging
MilSF1 writes "MIT scientists have applied for a patent on a coating process that reduces or eliminates fogging on glass surfaces (car windshields, eyeglasses, etc). The new coating was described today at the 230th national meeting of the American Chemical Society."
XP + Nanotech coating = Transparent Windows! Probly explains the long delay in releasing LongHorn...

I won't believe any of this until there is a Podcast released on it.
MIT scientists have applied for a patent on a coating process that reduces or eliminates fogging on glass surfaces. The new coating consists of a highly acidic chemical that melts the glass into a thick green goo. While the glass (now known as green goo) possesses none of its original qualities including transparency, it has also been shown to provide a 5% or greater resistance to fog.

Which reminds me: we need a coating for monitors that prevents greasy smudges from morons pointing at the screen. A thin metallic film with a 10 kV feed would be good.
This is great news for slashdotters. Now when you're making out with your girlfriend in the backseat of the car ... oh, wait. Never mind!
