Seems to come with a few misconceptions - interesting observation though as far as I can tell...

Hi everybody
The article published in the review 'Nature' about the recent discovery of carbon nanotubes in an ancient damascus sabre has generated a long and very interesting article in the French daily 'Le Monde' on Nov. the 20th, in its scientific section.
For the ones that can read French, here is the link :
