Why nanotechnology? A quote from the terrorists' website: "The ever more rapid acceleration of this technology will lead to the creation of nanocyborgs that can self-replicate automatically without the help of a human." It's a claim the nanoscientists dismiss as science fiction, with the coordinator of the University of the Americas-Puebla's nanotech department noting that "in our country, and in the whole Latin American region, we put more faith in the supernatural than in reason."
