A special paint has been developed to dampen mobile phone signals. It’s created by blending particles of copper that are inserted into nanotubes, and then mixing and suspending these tiny particles into a can of paint. Possible uses are for cinemas and, erm, somewhere else.

Inspiration to make things better.
Nanotubes rule.
I was on a coach on the way up to Cape Cod at the weekend. For the first time in many-a-moon I’d neglected to bring along the iPod and my lovely Sony MDR V500 headphones. This meant subjecting myself to the non-stop hiss of other people’s headphones, some granny behind me constantly “clicking” her gum like a 12 year old, snoaring, burping, folk talking trash and all sorts of 7-hour coach journey unpleasantness…
What made me smile was the way-too-loud driver shouting over the PA system “Please show consideration to fellow passengers by keeping your cell conversations quiet and short!” He announced this 4 times in one hour at ear splitting volume.
Weird thing was, nobody was on their phone – he was the only burk shouting…anyway, perhaps we could paint the pillock’s head with this stuff?
Just a thought…
