This is genius. It dwarf's the stylus in style and user-friendliness. I think this is a step towards permanent storage for humanity. With further advancement on this technology we might never need to worry about what happens to papers after we're done writing. So many applications.

I think the scare is overshot and the prices are not rising due to Ebola. As a resident of Ghana, there's very little on the local news any more about Ebola. Now it's merely a myth to us as we've been hearing about it for months without any real scare yet. That being said, should Ebola strike either Ivory Coast or Ghana, any rise in prices are going to be due to greedy middlemen because the transport of cocoa in these countries is completely separate from the public and the areas where cocoa is actually grown are remote and secluded from the public. So I don't think our chocolate is in danger just yet. Not for another year at least.

That's true. I think that too little emphasis is put on culture, and too much on skills. Thankfully, the developed world is catching up quick on that. How soon before the developing world gets the gist?
