Has anyone ever hear of Nano-fog?

Consider the force of this situation: under development will be
the greatest production tool in history, a truly general
fabrication system able to make anything that can be designed -
and a design system will already be in hand. Will everyone wait
until assemblers appear before planning how to use them? Or will
companies and countries respond to the pressures of opportunity
and competition by designing nanosystems in advance, to speed the
exploitation of assemblers when they first arrive?</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.e-drexler.com/d/06/00/EOC/EOC_Chapter_3.html">How well we <A href="http://www.e-drexler.com/d/06/00/EOC/EOC_References.html#0061">design

Medical technology, the space frontier, advanced computers, and
new social inventions all promise to play interlocking roles. But
the assembler breakthrough will affect all of them, and more.</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/F0C7FF33-1CF7-4D18-9326-C1F1D432F1C7/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
