This this thing is pretty cool. Supposedly it might help with cleaning up waste and such.

On a side note... about biobatteries. One of the more commonly researched areas of micro/nano robotics is to use 'bio batteries'. Currently they can use tiny organisms as a source of locamotion. Sticking propellors on the tail of a single celled organism (I forget what it's called now) and they are able to control how it spins its tail.. So they really created a tiny submarine.... Pretty cool butn ot yet practical. _________________ "My Heart Is In the Work" - Andrew Carnegie |
