I think she was just overjoyed at having found her
shift key. |

Not baked, but this idea is completely fleshed out in a
fantastic book by Daniel Suarez called "Kill Decision".
In the book drones are created that work like insects in
that they leave sent trails that communicate with all
the other drones. The scent he used was modified
pepper spray, because it is one of the scents that is
both dense and industrially produced. |

I'd recommend ALL of his books. He is an author that
really understands tech. (link) |

Thanks for the recommendation, [QED] - just bought
it on your recommendation and so far it's a great
read. |
