FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Austin, Texas - June 14, 2006
The Wright Brothers started an industry that changed the world. Today thousands of
individuals, companies, and universities are jump-starting another industry that
will revolutionize the world far more than the airplane did. That new industry is
Nanotechnology.

Molecular Manufacturing, the original core of Nanotechnology, uses a Nanofactory to
create consumer products by assembling individual molecules and atoms into the final
product. The research required to design a working Nanofactory requires the effort
of many people. The Wright Brothers handled everything themselves. Today,
organizations are needed to provide support, but it is still the individual, driven
by the belief that something is possible, who makes it happen.

The Wright Brothers built their airplane with their own hands and flew it at Kitty
Hawk. You can see that first flight at
http://www.lizardfire.com/graphics_techmech/WrightFlight.html . To do the
equivalent in Nanotechnology would take tens of millions of dollars of equipment
and a team of individuals working for a decade on the right problems. When research
supports the pathway to the Nanofactory, the result might look like the animation at
http://www.lizardfire.com/html_nano/nano.html .

If money is put into less relevant research, you will have better tennis racquets,
but you will not have general purpose Molecular Manufacturing in the same amount of
time. The decision comes down to: Where do we put the money to achieve the goals we
want?

There are similarities between the Wright\'s Flyer and the Nanofactory. Both are the
projects of individuals working together toward a common goal. Both projects were
financed by private citizens. Before their successful creation, both projects
received negative predictions of success. Both used the latest information
available, but many problems had to be solved before the machines could fly.

The actual nanofactory is still years away. When it arrives, research tools will
flow from it as fast as they can be designed. Tiny sensors and tiny medical repair
robots will change medical care forever.

Nanotechnology is not the only path to advanced medical care. But other methods will
not be configurable or evolve as fast as designs built by the Nanofactory because
the factory can build anything we can describe. It is a general purpose constructor
- maybe not able to handle \"Earl Gray - Hot!\" right off the bat, but that will come.
In the first ten years it will revolutionize the world.
