Nanotechnology
Machines the size of a virus, that can be programmed to do different tasks. Brought to you by the same guys that have difficulty working their DVD recorder.
What the Fuck is Nanotech
Shit to get in:
Fantastic Voyage, inner space, Red Dwarf, Deus Ex, at least 4 micro dickjokes. Sneeze and the machine is gone (something about allergy screening maybe?) riff on Count Zero and other sci fi for nannites as a plague
Talk about the planned good - and point out these ar the same guys that couldn't build a fucking telescope - tech arc - where the earlier stuff is a failure.
Ways to control this shit - discuss mutations too. Bring in von Neumann machines.
