I posted a comment on a article anonymously (entering a username and email), I then decided to create an account, but when I do, it tells me that the email is already in use...but then when I try to recover a password, it sais that the email address could not be found in the database...

So how can I create a account? Can someone help me?

Yeah I can, but it's using my work email...which I don't really want to do. I think what happened is that when I posted the comment anonymously using a userid and email (without password etc.), it put that email address somewhere, and now it thinks that I'm already a member under that email, but i'm actually not, so then when I want to create an account under that email address it already exists, but prolly from that comment post, and not a true account.

"Ceramic engines are nothing new.
The issue is that they are prone to wearing quickly in even conventual use."

I agree...but they say that they are now able to give ceramics METAL properties, thus it should perform much better and not wear like normal ceramics.

Also...they do say in another article(i guess could be the source), that: "A team of Indian engineers have created a small chip that can hold 1TB of data, which is more than 50 times the capacity of today's best silicon-based chip technologies." - See:

So I guess that they DID really create the chip. This guy has been experimenting with this technology for years - see:

So maybe it's not so far off... :)

Nevermind...I figured it out.

I just changed the email address in this account that i'm using to the one I want, and it accepted it.
