It also turns out that materials with the apperance of comlex nano composites don't actually have to be engineered deliberately. Some times they just happen.
Wildly OT IMO. There's a big difference between naturally occuring carbon nanotubes and the suggested composite layered materials.
I'd like to see Dr. G, or similar, get his hands on a wee sample and get to work

Until such, or similar, I suggest little progress can be made and we are still in super/nano/therm(i/a)te limbo, in terms of conclusive proof.
One side of the fence cannot say with 100% certainty that the compounds were present (deliberately engineered and used).
The other side of the fence cannot say with 100% certainty that they were not (deliberately engineered and used).
Await further evidence.
