Future nanotubes use?

Richard B. Cathcart writes "The World Development Federation's FIRST Virtual Global Super Projects Conference has many interesting reports posted at its temparary WWW site–available probably through the end of December 2001. GO TO: www.conway.com/wdf/gspc/virtual2001. In Session #3 a molecular nanotechnology-produced super-rope is proposed a a means to block the Strait of Gibraltar with a tensioned-fabric curtain. Such protective submarine screen would be made even more effective if it were held in place with braided nanotubes."

    It IS fixed .. in the story. But the main page still has the malf'd URL.

    More nitpiks .. the site does NOT display at all in Netscape 4. under Solaris. Works fine in IE and Windows 2000.

    Not to nitpick, but shouldn't this be the topic of en email to the webmaster, rather than a comment on the development of nanotubes ?
