5. IBM SCIENCE: BEAM ME UP SCOTTY, IT'S GETTING CRAZY DOWN HERE. 
"Stand by. I'll teleport you some goulash...An IBM scientist and
his colleagues have discovered a way to make objects disintegrate
in one place and reappear intact in another," according to an ad
in February's Scientific American.  Tipped off by a WN reader, I
sent an e-mail to "askIBM" requesting more information.  "Hello
Bob," came back, "This is still under development and no further
information is currently available.  Thank You for using askIBM.
Roseann."  Are they having trouble with the di-lithium crystals?
