Lindisfarne Mead Lindisfarne Mead Lindisfarne Mead is a fortified honey alcoholic drink from Northumberland in North East England, with links to the monks of Holy Island. It is made exclusively in St Aiden's Winery on the Holy Island of Lindisfarne. Like other mead, Lindisfarne mead is fermented from honey. However it is also vatted with fermented grape juice, herbs, natural well water and fortified with fine spirit. The honey which is used in the production of Lindisfarne Mead is drawn from around the world as well as from the island. Unlike other traditional mead, Lindisfarne mead is actually a hydromel because it
Carver Mead their work with Moore. During one of their discussions, Moore asked Mead whether electron tunneling might limit the size of a workable transistor. When told that it would, he asked what the limit would be. Stimulated by Moore's question, Mead and his students began a physics-based analysis of possible materials, trying to determine a lower bound for Moore's Law. In 1968, Mead demonstrated, contrary to common assumptions, that as transistors decreased in size, they would not become more fragile or hotter or more expensive or slower. Rather, he argued that transistors would get faster, better, cooler and cheaper as they
