Default Re: OT: Nanotech?

Nanotech is the Holy Grail of moder civilization, much like nuclear energy was in 50s. But Nuclear Age of Prosperity turned into the Cold War and the treat of mass destruction. Now meditate on the fact that nuclear bomb is just a toy compared to 1(!) advanced selfreplicating nanoassembler.

And in spite of my fear of this alien future, I'm delighted with huge amount of possibilities which nanotech will bring to our life. Of course informational security will be a question of survival, not just erased data. It sounds absurd for us, but it will be a common fact for our grandchilds.
