    One of those surveys

    I've been to do a survey on a home local to ourselves. We are one of many people that have been to see her (always a concern) and the amount of crap that she has been told is incredible. First of all, and the thing that mainly got my back up, was a question that I was asked about the size of...

    Clever those Japanese

    Researchers in Japan have smashed the record for wireless data transmission in the terahertz band, an uncharted part of the electro-magnetic spectrum.
