Also, the cost of production of CNTs is still rather high, a CNT space elevator many, many kilometers long is probably still to expensive for government to be interested (since they'll probably be the ones to fund it).
However, Double Walled Nanotubes have some interesting properties that might be able to surpass the listed "short" comings of SWNT, specifically the thermal and chemical properties.
I hope this isn't considered nested posting or something like that.
...Little Carl in the ATHF eqisode "Cybernetic Ghost of Christmas Past from the Future," probably the best ATHF episode ever.
My roommate met mc chris at the Masquerade a few months ago.
...were supposed to be all about the graphics a few years ago. The industry has that down pretty well. The Final Fantasy series is a good example: from NES to SNES, to PS1 to PS2, the graphics have improved steadily, and reached a new plateau when introduced to a new console.
Now it's about hours of gameplay. Let's use the example of Metal Gear Solid. MGS I (for PS1) was, in my opinion, solid from start to finish, but one could easily fly through it in 1.5 to 2.0 hours. MGS 2, while on a next-generation console, had better much graphics and much longer gameplay time. However, I think playing MGS 1 for the first time had a bigger impact than when I played MGS 2 for the first time.
I think the basics that everyone tends to ignore is how the game plays. We all loved the original GTA3, MGS 1, and FF7 because of their innovative gameplay. Each of those games set a standard for their respective genres. It's about about game play.
I would also venture to say that a few of us still dust off Mario Bros, be it via NES, SNES, or emulation, and still give those games a go even though they're from earlier generations of consoles and are considered dated by every aspect of video gaming.
It's all about how a game plays.
mass and energy. though science fiction based on Hawking's new theory probably won't be as entertaining as the previous theory (wormholes vs matter and light remain matter and light), it's good to see a physical constant proven to be true.

I'm in the middle of Xenosaga (or towards the end?) and it's just as good as the first, if not better.
Xenosaga episode II is coming out soon and I'm looking forward to it.
To those who have not played these games, I highly recommend them. I believe they're planned to be a series of 6 games, including Xenogears?

I believe he uses "information" to refer to both light and mass in the same term.
