Re: [Sci.nanotech] sci.nanotech Inventions

Why do you want to do this? I spend some time
regularly reading various nanotechnology papers and
articles. For example, in the past few weeks I've
studied: nanocomposites needed for small
flywheel/wind-power systems, wind turbine blades
carbon composites, a CNT defect "purification"
methodology, UHV components and product
applications...it wouldn't be too much a tangent to
write old sci.nanotech topic summaries and google
existing topic links, but it would still be a slightly
inferior use of my time.

Do you have an estimate of how many 1-2 page summaries
you would expect the whole project to encompass? Do
you have anything to trade in return? I know not
cash, but perhaps you have University access to
nanotech/materials-science journal articles you'd be
willing to print out or an old copy of Nanosystems or
some other text you'd be willing to lend out? I might
be willing to invest my time if the completed effort
would help others with their nano-education and if
there were some incentive offered for me.


I'm looking at it as a way to both get some more interesting content
into the group website, and also to see if there are any prospects for
research which have not yet been done but might be. I am following the
full assembler and programing myself when I can, but others like the
recent Ankit may benefit from research ideas if they are more readily
available.

I'm aware that there is a _very_ long history of wonderful and wild
ideas in here. It could be quite a lot if anyone was to do a full
background by themselves. The storage space is available, I brought the
idea up in part to see if the time and interest was.

I was considering it as a spare-time effort by anyone who wants to
participate, prescisely because of that low-efficiency slog aspect. I
gae it a try myself a few days ago. All I can really offer in exchange
is the 'free' and public publishing online. I do have access to a
university library, but the university has not even made pretenses of
being nanotech interested. With regards to other lendings, I am based in
Oceania, and essentiall very remote with regards to offline
communications.

The job is to data mine the old sci.nanotech
archives looking for any
process or system the regulars here have discussed.
Then to write up a
short (hopefully) page describing it, with publicly
accessible current
references, where possible.

I have an idea that many of these older systems may
already be in full
commercial production. I know my water purifier, the
invisibility
cloaking method, and some of the anti-cancer cures,
fuel-cells etc have
recently been proven and built.
