The Bunsen Burner

Abstract:
The winter Olympics this year saw more things hardening than my resolve to be a world-champion curler. British firm d30 distributed newly developed, high-tech skiing outfits that contain a fluid which hardens when sharply struck. The nanotechnology responsible for these snug digs is also poised to revolutionize modern battlefields.
