I always love these articles. "One day, after millions in research, we will be able to do what we already can. But with smaller equipment. That you will have to pay more for." While I LOVE advances in technology I can't understand this. Ok, so my skin is wired. So is my house and it really doesn't do anything... Conductive circuitry does not advancement make. But, thanks for the article. Sorry, had to rant.
All new technologies have to come from somewhere, and while it's true many discoveries never lead to market viable products, it is impossible to tell which is which until the discovery is made, tested, and advanced upon. Some of the best technologies we have came from unlikely sources so I for one encourage any scientific advancement(so long as it is achieved in an ethical manner).
