So much is lost. There are no truths, or proper ways to shoot with bow,
I have rediscovered something about archery, but there is still so much to rediscover”

Georgia Tech Develops Inkjet-Based Circuits at Fraction of Time and Cost
Researchers from Georgia Tech, the University of Tokyo and Microsoft Research have developed a novel method to rapidly and cheaply make electrical circuits by printing them with commodity inkjet printers and off-the-shelf materials. For about $300 in equipment costs, anyone can produce working electrical circuits in the 60 seconds it takes to print them.
