What Happened To The Van Der Waals Revolution?

I thought,
at the time of writing this
Post;
Are You Ready For The Van Der Waals Revolution?
on
February 21st, 2016,
that the
Van Der Waals
would be upon us by now!
Taking over the
World!

*****
Unlike the  

Plastic Revolution, 

which nobody seemed to notice, 

and much like the  

Industrial Revolution, 

which everyone quickly hears about during their grade school years, 

the latest  

Revolution 

which will come 

and change our lives is the  

Van Der Waals Forces.

"In physical chemistry, the van der Waals forces (or van der Waals' interaction), named after Dutch scientist Johannes Diderik van der Waals, are the residual attractive or repulsive forces between molecules or atomic groups that do not arise from a covalent bond, or electrostatic interaction of ions or of ionic groups with one another or with neutral molecules."
The you Wikipedia.

Basically, 

it is what creatures like spiders, 

ants, 

and everyone's favorite, 

the
Gecko

use to climb up walls, 

glass, 

and hang upside down on your ceiling. 

I've seen several shows on the different studies being done around the
World

and the wonderful inventions soon to be coming our way. 

Everything from removable tape, 

where you can hang devices 

or paintings anywhere on any wall in your house 

or office, 

to wearable gloves. 

For safely climbing up skyscrapers. 

You get the idea. 

A great example of the future is the 

"Tiny Robot" 

that weighs 20 milligrams 

but can carry 500 milligrams 

or pull 2,000 times its own weight. 

Watch the  

YouTube 

video at

We will all soon be able to hang anything anywhere, 

including ourselves,
up side down. 

If you missed the TV show  

"Telescope" 

on the 

Discovery Channel 

 yesterday, 

the 

Science Channel 

will be broadcasting the show today at 9 P.T. 

If you love everything about space like I do, 

you will want to see this show.

This is,

Hoping For A New Telescope
Soon To Be Delivered To My House
As A Surprise,

Jim Hauenstein,

And,

“Unlike what you may be told in other sectors of life, when observing the universe, size does matter, which often leads to polite ‘telescope envy’ at gatherings of amateur astronomers.” 
- Neil deGrasse Tyson - 

That is my story and I'm sticking to it!
