Comment Bad for Business. (Score 1) 273

I say let her send her cease-and-desist letters. It will only make for less networking on her part, and less business for her as a direct result. She's digging her own grave. The fair use clause in US copywrite law would prevent her from winning most (if not all) lawsuits she files. You can talk about a trademark as long as you don't infringe upon it.

Comment Depends on your definition of "chip" (Score 0) 362

Referencing science fiction, Star Trek's Voyager was the first ship to utilize bio-neuric computer technology. I imagine that the cells in the sacks are smaller than any chip that the Enterprise D had. I would consider the cells in Bio-neuric computer technology as "chips", and it exists in our brains. We just don't know yet how to harness it. So yes, smaller computer chips are possible.
