Someone finally voiced how I feel about CRN spreading gloom and doom about the most promising new technologies of the age. While I respect Chris Phoenix for his insights into nanomanufacturing and anti-aging, I feel his organization's focus on the dangers just gives the "statists"** the excuse they are looking for to try to increase their control over others. ** "statists" vs. "dynamicists" described in Virginia Postrel's book "The Future and Its Enemies".
