Add to that the problems of "Grey Goo", and we are heading down a bad path my friend.

I wasn't aware of that particular Doomsday scenario--thanks for the Links, Brother DRD. Now I've got another reason to sweat, fret and drink some Scotch.

I really like The Glenfiddich Scotch myself. Keeps the grey goo away.
