My email to Carly Fionarina regarding recent ads by HP:

Carly -

I need you to clarify something about your new ad campaign for HP. In particuliar, the statement that "nanotechnology is the building block of life".

Last time I checked - that was inaccurate. As a matter of fact, atoms, molecules, or even DNA could be considered the building blocks of life - but something that you want to eventually sell and make money on.... I don't think so.

Please make sure to have a competent fact checker review all information before your ad agency makes HP look stupid. I realize that most people won't catch this faux pas - but then again, the people that don't catch it won't be buying nanotechnology - will they??

Thank you -

Rob
