Nanotechnology Could Bring CFCs Back to Earth Nanotechnology could one day help remove ozone-depleting chemicals from the stratosphere. A team of German chemists at the University of Ulm was working with perfluorodecalin, a liquid used in the production of synthetic blood and that has properties similar to chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs). They were surprised to observe the chemical being taken up

I found two interesting new (to me) traffic monitoring items. The first is an Air Traffic monitor for several airports (although not MSP) at Passur. Check out LAX or BOS. This is a real-time view of planes over city maps, with tags for aircraft type, inbound/outbound, altitude, etc. Feel like an Air Traffic Controller.
