Technology is ace. I love it. Check this out from from Crunchgear. US Army scientists, so often the bad guys just because they spend their time working out more efficient ways of wiping out civilisations, have come up with nanofibre technology that means missing limbs and damaged organs can be regrown.
One guy re-grew a fingertip, bone nail and all, that he’d lost in a freak model aeroplane accident. (Not sure what was so freak about it, he probably stuck his finger in something sharp and fast moving)*. And apparently a little girl grew a foo foo she never had in the first place!
This is so awesome I almost don’t quite believe it. The full story’s here.
*what constitutes a freak accident, as opposed to a run of the mill accident?
