technology:
Sometimes a dorky technology is made to work, it seems to catch the eye of people and gets steady generous funding.
4example; look at the progress flash memory (non-volatile computer storage) has made last few years. It is a dorky technology. Each tiny tiny memory cell has a transistor insulated all around by an oxide layer. Electrically isolated; a very very small group of electrons are trapped there (write). Hope and prayer is this will not discharge for many years till its read. All this started way back when as an EPROM chip and now we are replacing the mechanical hard drives (except on windows computers).
We have experienced functional progress; current hiv control methods could extend a patient 40years.
Medical technology is slowed down by moral, religious concerns but just bet some under funded situation will come up with a working cure or vaccination.
