Does anyone know anything about Nanotechnology?
I was talking with a friend about this. I suggested the following. I don't know if it's feasible. It seems like some years down the road it could be.
It could go like this:
Develop a nano-machine that can suffocate\destroy brain cells\eat away at tissue... really anything that could kill someone. Then program it to activate only when it comes across a certain persons DNA... so you could gas an entire city with this stuff and only kill the person that you're looking for.
...or possibly even expand it to a certain ethnic group.
...or you could program it to kill everyone who didn't have a specific DNA string (yours) leaving you all alone. Loneliness is the most terrifying weapon.
And I think that war would be a lot more acceptable if we called the instruments of destruction weapoons, not weapons.

2This is crazy talk.
Your talk is all crazy.
Weapoons in the future will be deployed from the faces of international pop stars. In 2036, Elton John will have eyes that shoot bunker-busters (see fig. 1.0). The Brits will use him to annihilate Americans gullible enough to think that he's putting on gigs in giant, freshly dug holes.
We're going to win back our country, just you wait and see.

4How could you program it to target only a specific race? The actual blends that occur are far more complicated that the simplistic racial terms that we're stuck with...

6Mr Rabbit, I'm intrigued by what I think you're suggesting here. If I'm seeing this at the full 180 what you're saying is we miniturise racist dogs and fires them out of cannons at 'The Blacks (TM)'?
We're on a handcart to a hiding here. Through the looking-arse.

7it would be perfrctly possible to program nanites to target a specific ethnic group as the dna of each ethnic group has certain markers that seperate them from the rest of the planet. the problem is that many people will carry markers for ethnic groups contrary to what the believe to be their own. i for example appear white european, but im actually part dutch, part anglo saxon, and part zulu though if i didn't know i was adopted i would never know i was mixed race. therefor i wouldn't know i carried those markers.
a truely scary application for this technology would be if it were programed to replicate itself. this would lead to the destruction of all life on earth, before the planet itself is turned into one big floating ball of nanites (grey goo theory).
the way in which this technology works is that it rearanges things at the sub atomic level. you could literaly thow some nanites into a bath tub full of wood, and if given the right commands they could turn that wood into gold, all by rearranging the molecules.
this technology is very real, and we're only a few decades away from it being more than just applied science in a lab. fucking scary.

I think I can say with some conviction that we are sailing from the same score-card Mr III!
Glad to have you aboard, Cap'n.

In that case, we should make the weapons so that instead of killing our enemies, it turns them into Ferraris and Segways.
That'd be so hot.
