Never Thought You'd Use a Printer for That
A super #1 no-prize goes to Jeff for bringing us this completely fascinating article about how scientists are working on creating whole organs using inkjet printers. Printers. Like that cheesy thing sitting next to you at your house.
Are they there yet? No, but did you think of using a printer to make a blood vessel? I didn't think so...
While the Midrasas concentrate on the "important" stuff like how to keep the women in line and the proper way to attack the infidel, we're going to be printing out working human organs.
Absolutely fascinating. I cannot imagine the progress that you will see in this field. We are living science fiction.
