- RpgActioN, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"Yes, but can you write with it?"
Maybe with a pen and some tape. - Malacoi, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Yay no more brushing teeth...

- Iakona, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0It's funny that everyone is saying, 'lightsaber' cuz that's what I was gonna say. Just make the plume larger and get charge the nice heavy particles and SLASHHHH!!
- incu_vamp, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0that is so cool
- coldsteel, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Now this is the kind of story that I wish DIGG had more of - very interesting I wish the article went into more detail I would love to know more about how it works (like how does it distinguish between the cell wall of a bacterium and the cell wall of a skin cell?) Or between a tumorous and non-tumorous cell? Seems like you have to use it more like a laser than a shield. Why Helium as opposed to say Nitrogen? Anyway great DIGG.
- iamme99, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Sounds cool. Problem is, it kills the good bateria with the bad.
- superal1394, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0o well, everything has side effects. If they can make it blast the plaque off my teeth THEN it will be perfect. i HATE the feeling of getting my teeth cleaned
- funderbolt, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0It wouldn't stand up to pencil eating bacteria!
In that case, there would be more proof that the Flying Spaghetti Monster does exist. - vertigoblue, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0d00d that soo is a lightsaber...
- .Steven, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Cool!

Here is a pic

- kevin.gc, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Lightsaber intesity dial:
Cool - mostly electrons - used for practice
Warm - equal mix - for normal fighting conditions
Hot - electrons and heavier particles - for cutting a slash in a blast door of an Imperial destroyer - wilf_brim, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Looks cool, when can I get one.
