Molecules Spontaneously Form Honycomb
Science Daily is reporting that University of California Researchers have discovered a new process in which molecules assemble into complex patterns without any outside guidance. From the article: "Spreading anthraquinone, a common and inexpensive chemical, on to a flat copper surface, Greg Pawin, a chemistry graduate student working in the laboratory of Ludwig Bartels, associate professor of chemistry, observed the spontaneous formation of a two-dimensional honeycomb network comprised of anthraquinone molecules."
Honeycombs Big?
Almost good enough spelling for Digg.

As cool as this is, what part of this is "news?"
You must have missed this part:
Obviously this is big news to farmers who raise little tiny chickens.
Please tell us the chemical composition of this "water" and what type of "flat surface", and I'm sure we can arrange you with your PhD. Today our PhD's come with some hony. Please enjoy.
2 heydrogn atoms and one oxgen
