Invisibility cloak
« on: 01 March 2013, 18:44:18 »
In the US they are demonstrating an invisibility cloak.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/news/9902307/Invisibility-cloak-unveiled-at-TED-conference.html

As of the Eastleigh election David Cameron has announced that the Conservative party will be investing heavily in this technology, saying it is only by making the other party's votes invisible will we have any chance of winning any seats in the 2015 General Election.  ;D

I thought VX fitted them to the Omega, judging by the number of morons that pull out on you on a daily basis. ;D ;D

I very often think I'm invisible when I'm standing at a pub bar queueing for a drink, judging by how many people who queue jump.  :(

Thats the reason why I chucked my invisibility cloak away.  By the way they soon serve you if you drop empty glasses off the bar ;)
