Small machines that roam one's scalp, devouring dead skin and dandruff, safely removing the dreaded flakes once and for all!

What does one do about the machines' exhaust/excretions? |

Peter, the dust mite feces is a minor problem compared to the dead bodies. All that cold, clammy flesh and the oozing make it terribly dificult to get off to sleep at night. |

<wry> nick_n_uit, the machines would be programmed to replicate themselves using the waste as raw materials, of course. They would acquire the energy they need from the consumption of the dandruff (???), and then with waste and parts of the defunct, replicate further until your entire skin was crawling with little flesh eating beasties. Never have to bathe again! Ah, the glories of NANO! |P </wry> |
