Scientists: Artificial life likely in 3 to 10 years

Gray goo!

Grey goo refers to a hypothetical end-of-the-world scenario involving molecular nanotechnology in which out-of-control self-replicating robots consume all living matter on Earth while building more of themselves (a scenario known as ecophagy). [Wikipedia]

oh, the novels I could write about this. I am sure they have already been written

also, remember that video of the robot climbing stairs and falling down and everyone freaks out? that was pretty funny, but it made me want to die inside.

Hey buddy several of the most outspoken proponents of the Science vs. Religion We-Will-Shut-Down-Your-Thread crew have already posted and coexisted just nice before this.

I'd like to point out which side fired the first shot. Without a link to some stupid group actually complaining I believe this is nothing short of trying to stir up trouble.

By the way, Mr. Wizard, you misspelled "just", "religious", and "people" while you were in such a hurry to make sure you were the guy that started the fight.

Actually I was just posting my opinion after reading the article and making a small joke which doesn't seem to have you laughing. Also, I type fast from a force of habit during my high school years to get papers done. I've yet to break the habit.
