  1. Bringing it to market on Plastic Lasers · · Score: 1
    Unfortunately, Lucent is pretty bad at bringing things to market. I'll give you an example. There are two methods for etching computer chips. One is X-Ray lithography, and the other is electron-beam lithography. I'm not sure, but I think Lucent invented X-Ray lithography last year.

    This will allow Grove's law to continue. It should ALSO have given Lucent a monopoly of sorts that is worth billions of dollars (potentially doubling the value of the business).

    That's not what happened.

    Hopefully some other company will license the technology and bring it to market in Internet time.

  2. Re:Vitamin B6 on Carpal Tunnel Surgery? · · Score: 1

    Carpal Tunnel has been linked to Vitamin B6 deficiency. It was discovered in part because pregnant women tend to get Carpal Tunnel, and they often have a B6 deficiency. Take 100Mg of B6 a day, preferably with a B complex. My officemate and some sign language interpreters (very vunerable to carpal tunnel) swear by it.
