Add carbon nanotubes to the list of items that we at WorldChanging can't get enough of. Word from the latest Technology Research News is that carbon nanofibers provoke far less tissue resistance when used for medical implants than traditional materials. Less scarring, less rejection -- oh, and a potential ability to connect to neurons, facilitating brain and nervous system implants. Carbon nanotubes are almost certainly a key structural component of a changed world...

Tech Research News link doesn't connect. Nanotube article from 1991 is fascinating.

Hmmm... I just tested it, the link worked fine for me. What results are you getting? A "404 Not Found" or something else?
