We're familiar with the technology,yes.
right,well,the thinking is always to continue down that line.
to break the bonds,to turn them off,sever their connections to one another, because dust we can deal with,right?
Rodney.
We do the opposite.
Instead of severing their connections,we significantly dial up their attraction to one another.
We turn each cell into an incredibly powerful nanite magnet.
You know,one cell attracts another cell,those two attract two more, and as more and more nanite cells bond to the core group, they become stronger and stronger and stronger, to the point where every replicator cell on the planet,in orbit,all of them,
are amassed in this giant,super-dense blob.
A super dense-blob?
That's your great idea?
It is,yes,actually.
So what do we do with the blob,then?
Aren't we in danger of creating some godzilla-sized super-replicator?
No.
At least tmartin@example.net.
This is not their normal form of bonding.
I mean,it will take them some time to adapt, to figure out how to function within the new parameters.
How much time?
Well,I mean,I'd hate to speculate.
Since when?
Look,it doesn't matter anyways,because,long before that happens, they're going to fuse together so tightly,they will be rendered essentially inert.
Remember,this bond is occurring on a subspace level-- which helps get them past the normal repulsive force between nuclei-- to the point where their electrons are fusing with their protons, and once that starts happening,they're toast.
