Carbon nanotube surrounded by other chains of molecules. Perhaps an illustration of how a carbon-nanotube fiber cable is constructed.

It's a new snap-together toy being marketed by LynDoor Industries to compete with Legos.

It's called Eggos™.

James,

Thank you for that information.

I have forwarded it on to our legal council, Dewey, Cheteem and Howe, with instructions to immediately file a trademark Cease and Desist action against those thieves at Kelloggs®!

I am about to post a question about pressure limits of containers made from poly-carbonate Lexan, and I wonder who will have experience with that?
