Yuriy Svidinenko: In this study I'll try to simulate simple mobile cell-repair nanorobot and try to analyse some of it's subsystems. Here, I want to focus on the purely simulation aspects of the cell repair nanorobot's functions and parts.

See Cell Repair Nanorobot Design And Simulation for details.

Quote of the day

The growth industry of the 21st Century is going to be clean power and green technology.

~Tom Friedman

...industries which will be enabled by nanotechnology.

~Rocky Rawstern

Tom Friedman speaks on green tech

Today’s post will be short and sweet.

A friend passed along three video links to interviews with Tom Friedman, author of The World is Flat.

Friedman is also a New York Time foreign Affairs columnist and a widely respected expert on the "great changes taking place in our time."

Here are the links to the interviews, which I highly recommend you take the time to listen to:

With Bill Maher
Part I: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aaSn-U4qbmg
Part 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I7NmA6Dw_kI&mode=related&search=

With Tim Russert

Drop off your political preconceptions and biases and spend some time with someone who has really taken the time to study some of the most serious issue facing us today.
