I was studying towards my doctorate in this specific field for two years. This particular challenge was touted for a long time and was supposed to be the holy grail that would establish for ever the authenticity of conductive polymers and this field. Too bad it hasn't turned out this way.
There was never enough "science" in this field. Too much sci-fi and reliance on empirical data rather than precise modeling and ability to predict force! Why, even a basic equation like F=Ma needed to be applied in twisted and convoluted way for such materials.
As a mechanical engineer, I never thought this was going anywhere. After working on this field for two years, I finally left school and got a MS as a consolation. Now I work in the finance industry.
You need to be an active blogger to get access to GMail. I have multiple Blogger accounts. But they gave me access only in those accounts where I have been active lately.
well...read my post. I said "almost always". The diseases you have mentioned are rare. And can be traced back to a single gene. On the other hand, heart attack is so common.
There is never *one* gene that causes a particular problem. Multiple genes are responsible almost always. Something as common as a heart attack will have multiple causes.
I've worked in the Conductive Polymers area for about a year and I can tell you that this article seems more of wishful thinking than any. Conductive polymers are exceedingly difficult to work with, have a very narrow range of pH under which they work, their properties have not been sufficiently characterized and so on. The replacement of liquid electrolytes sounds exceedingly difficult if not impossible to me, atleast from my experience.
Hey..why a NPO? I am writing a business plan to ship used electronics to India, refurbish them and sell them in Indian markets for a profit. I am an Indian now living in USA. I am planning to go back and start a company in this area. If you are interested and serious about this idea, touch base with me and we can talk.

Oh..it will never work on me - Marvin.
What is Oracle doing with Smelly Cat from Friends' Feby?
Don't look into the sky and drive. Look into the road ahead.
Out of 6 billion strong human species, I am the first to post in Slashdot on this article...woooohooooweeee...heeeee!

Who wants to bet that before long Microsoft will march in as White Knight and have proxy control over SCO. Hell, it already controls it indirectly!
Btw, Enron was the biggest owner of these pipelines before Skilling came along and branched out into financial hopskotch.
They hired me. Which means the skill set tests don't have value! Any standard test can be gamed.

A card cleaner was installed next to the machines...hahaha.. How about installing a brain cleaner to clean stupidity?

Baah....A document authored by a committee will be ready only just before the deadline no matter what sophisticated tool you use.

Congular rolled over !
India doesn't import any coal from USA. We have our own reserves, which are among the biggest in the world.
