Why the addition of "organic" in the title? or was it removed from the article? I mean, yeah, they're organic molecules: they have carbon in them[1]. So what?
Very neat results, though I note no mention of re-use of the circuits. Anyone know if this is a one-shot deal, or if it's possible to make a general-purpose CPU out of this technique?
edit: the research paper seems to imply the states are all mutable, which suggests to me that this is a very short step away from re-programmable circuits. Awesome. This could get interesting quickly, if there's an easy way to make the circuits in the first place.
