    I'm imagining the irony of having a device in your body to fight diabetes.

    It'd be a device that is powered by glucose to process glucose.... #bloodbatteries

    From the article "their waste products will need to be removed without allowing any harmful substances to leach out into the blood stream". That could mean that, while the metabolic waste itself may not be harmful, other components of the battery may be.

    From the limited amount I know about yeast, I don't believe they produce anything that our livers can't handle. #bloodbatteries

    Humans as living batteries? I don't like where this is going.

    Considering the fear/joy which resulted from a simple math equation like E=mc², we should think on this one.

    ...never mind "The Matrix", fear Exxon. #bloodbatteries

    If you're using yeast to process glucose, the waste product is going to be ethanol.
    I'm pretty sure I'm not alone here, but I for one would certainly pay good money for a device that charges batteries and intoxicates at the same time. #bloodbatteries

    This was covered way back in 2006! I remember it 'cause it was one of the first posts I noticed when joining this site. Either way, I still love it.

    @Software_Goddess: Lack of trust. That's why we're calling in Detective Loftus from the bunko squad. He'll spring into action and put this case to bed. Let's just hope he doesn't have to sleep on it before the solution comes to him. #furniture

    @The Lab:

    Its a Hermès tax added in addition to the Leica tax.

    There is not a tangible technical difference between this body and the plain ol' M7.

    Its just a fashion accessory not a tool for photographers at this point.

    For people that would rather look pretty taking pictures then taking pretty pictures. #leica
