This is not working the warehouse at a Home Depot Center or stocking shelves at Wal-Mart. Nanotechnology is and has been heavily invested in, for instance at Purdue Univ. Big money has being invested from the very first "up starts", which I believe was in NY and in Maine. As Mainers will be quick to tell ya, Maine is asleep when it comes to attracting science and technology business such as this to their state, thanks Olympia and Susan! See the big picture, do some research on why the states are fighting to get this technology to be at a "hub" in their state.
