Swarms Hunt Things that Go Bang
This blurb from Express News tells of bees, rats, and ferrets that hunt out explosives and nuclear items. Hmmnnn. Cool. How about genetically modified creatures enhanced cyborganically with nano-technology? Better yet, how do you nuero-network with a bug or creature and control them with your palmtop? This would be huge for nurseries and petshops. Imagine remote control fish and gerbils. Or cross polinating directly from the hive?See what happens when you get a creative hopped up on sci-tech smack?
