HACK POTENTIAL. "A widespread sensor mesh of smart dust that relies on radio waves to communicate will be just as vulnerable to electronic countermeasures as any other radio-based technology. But smart dust might overcome such obstacles by using swarm behavior." https://lnkd.in/ezqcA3j View in LinkedIn

HYPOTHESIS. "It is hypothesized that these pleomorphic forms are not staining artifacts/cellular debris, but instead represent various stages in the life cycle of stressed bacteria: cell wall-deficient/defective (often called L-forms) that are difficult-to-culture or nonculturable." https://lnkd.in/e6qsu9e View in LinkedIn

LASTING MOTORS. "Tiny vibration motors can harvest power from anything that moves or shakes—strides, heartbeats and active machinery. Flaps, weights and supports created using chip-fabricating techniques turn mechanical vibrations into power for as long as the machine holds up. Perhaps years." https://lnkd.in/ezqcA3j View in LinkedIn

UNDERESTIMATING L-FORMS. "Although these forms have been observed in stained tissue histopathologic specimens for many decades, most are ignored and generally regarded as diagnostically insignificant staining artifacts or debris." https://lnkd.in/e6qsu9e View in LinkedIn

SMALL PROGRESS. "Last year, a University of Michigan team showed off its Michigan Micro Mote, a solar-powered wireless computer not much bigger than a coarse grain of salt. A few years ago, Hitachi showed off experimental radio-frequency chips the size of dandruff flakes." https://lnkd.in/ezqcA3j View in LinkedIn

L-FORMS SUSPECTED. "There is considerable circumstantial evidence linking tissue pleomorphic forms of unknown origin with idiopathic chronic inflammatory, collagen, lymphoproliferative, nephro-urological (including interstitial cystitis and prostatodynia), and neoplastic diseases." https://lnkd.in/e6qsu9e View in LinkedIn

CIRCUMSTANTIAL EVIDENCE for L-Form bacteria being involved in chronic diseases many years after an initial infection. Diseases cited include: organ failure, autoimmune diseases, Guillian-Barré Syndrome, schizophrenia, stroke, cardiovascular disease, chronic fatigue syndrome, OCD, obesity, and chronic liver disease. https://lnkd.in/dTCkxDw View in LinkedIn

L-FORM IMMUNE CHALLENGE. "When the number of pathogens reaches a critical mass, childhood viral infections can reactivate, or the individual can acquire Candida (pathogenic yeast) and Mycoplasma infections." https://lnkd.in/dTCkxDw View in LinkedIn

L-FORMS AND DISEASE. "Some researchers now believe that chronic and recurrent illness - and particularly the 'mysterious' and autoimmune illnesses - may be the result of an ongoing challenge to the immune system by L-form bacteria. In addition to challenging the immune response, initial infections can alter the expression of human genes and also affect human host-cell pathways." https://lnkd.in/dTCkxDw View in LinkedIn

MINOR MUTATION. "We recently embarked on a molecular genetic analysis of the L-form state and showed that conversion of Bacillus subtilis into a form that can replicate reasonably efficiently in the absence of a cell wall (i.e. as an L-form) requires only two genetic changes." https://lnkd.in/d_F2hqt View in LinkedIn
