Aurel's laurels

I was looking for an image of a hypodermic needle as today we had to deal with a possible, I say possible because we couldn't find out what was ailing Mr L, although something plainly was, a possible heroin overdose. It was more strange than disquieting for me to stand there hoping the man would not nod off into a coma and death. He was OK and they got him to the hospital quickly.

Anyway this needle is infinitesimally small and it was sharpened by men, or women, or both. The developing nano world is getting to be far more impressive than the mega one.
