  2. I see this going the way of the Mayans, unless. on Florida Lab Gets Pregnant · · Score: 0

    I often hope that some of the advanced new technologies come with an equally advanced brain able to harness it for the good or at least prevent things with huge implications like that from doing what the Mayans did to themselves... They were ahead of their time - and where are they now?

    Why not come up with a solution that would make sure our memory span lasts at least a few decades after leaving school, and give the researches that extra oomph of critical (security centered) thinking that's required to make it worthwhile. Start with Chicago.

  12. Re:No on Twisted Radio Beams Could Untangle the Airwaves · · Score: 1

    Just glancing at the summary I thought maybe the reference was made to giving Helicity - i.e. spin to the radio waves. That could be an interesting possibility if it were actually possible, as it'd be another dimension in which to encode information.
