Wow, what an impressive way to include the word "nano" in a story that has nothing whatsoever to do with nanotechnology. This is all part of today's nano-craze, where everybody doing anything at all on a small scale attaches the word "nano" to their projects.

This article talks about nano-bumps. As in, little tiny bumps. Just like the kind on your skin, or the kind you find in a rock, a tree, or a concrete sidewalk. And, yes, metal can have nano-bumps, too.

This isn't nanotechnology, folks, it's just little tiny bumps. Get yourself a big enough microscope and you'll see them. Hey, maybe you, too, can be your own nanotechnology researcher and request billion dollar grants from the federal government! Get a good enough microscope and you'll discover that, wow, nanotechnology is all around us!

I'll give 'em one thing, however. There is something shrinking to microscopic size that's worth mentioning: the brains of all the researchers trying to jump on the nanotech bandwagon.

By the way, wasn't it Robin Williams who first said, "Nano nano" anyway?
