Liquid glass? Sounds cool, but of course physically glass is part-liquid, part-crystal. If flows of course slower than a glacier, but of course you know this.
Your interests are clearly broad and technologically focussed. We do need to harness appropriate and resilient technologies to help in our transition to a more sustainable way of life. Your ideas are all potential local green businesses, and we have a number of members pursuing such entrepreneurial areas such as Philip Be'er's Home Harvest Farms.
Welcome to the Village, check out all the events happening in every neighbourhood of the city, and we hope to help you realize a passion in any of the areas you outline in your profile.
