Information is power

[james_davis_nicoll]

As a token of appreciation for me doing the legowrk while the exgf recovers, she got me a spiffy new drink container (of a brand recommended here but which I forget just now). It's about 1000 ml and has provided me with an interesting bit of information: every time I pick it up to have a drink, I consume 4 ounces. This would explain why I find most glasses annoyingly puny.

Of course, that's partly because "nanotechnology" is now a nearly meaningless word that's almost completely disconnected from its sfnal implications of self-assembling quasi-intelligent nanometer-scale robots. (Insert grumbly rant here.)

Nonetheless, things the use of nanometer-sized particles of zinc oxide to produce hypoallergenic high-SPF zinc-oxide sunscreen that's transparent rather than glaringly white are very cool bits of new technology, indeed.
