Once again, Anders, you are quite correct. However, presumably nanotech is, in fact, a cumulative research program with many (or at least more than one, anyway) "fronts"--yet moving toward one destination (so to speak): replicators/assemblers. This is the (at least QUASI-) "unitary" breakthrough I was referring to. Of course, we must keep vocal and public and so forth regarding the PATHWAYS leading toward the assembler breakthrough, lest THEY become cloaked in Military/Political/Authoritarian secrecy--then WE may still wind up as gray goo (or worse) at the hands of a dictator such as, say, Sodomy Insane (er, I mean, well, YOU KNOW WHO I MEAN...)

Best Regards to all,
