Caveat Emptor Nano
A recent Reuters story, Overused, Misused Nano Becoming Pervasive Prefix
(http://asia.reuters.com/newsArticle.jhtml?type=technologyNews&storyID=32103
83),
reminds me again of what NanoBusiness Alliance Executive Director Mark
Modzelewski wisely told Small Times reporter David Forman a few months
back following an apparent nanoscam
(http://www.smalltimes.com/document_display.cfm?document_id=5823) that
hit the industry:

Thanks for the links - they were very entertaining.
We are developing some materials (powders) in the .2 - .3 um range and
we
are stumped on how to include nano in the project name (The word nano
gets
our management very excited). Any suggestions ; )
Management gets excited, but not so excited as to be intelligently
creative?
Nano-stuff .....
But, your stuff is kind of big to be called "Nano". The old
'sub-micron' is more accurate.
Accurate? - does that have something to do with - truth in marketing?
