LOL...

Great concept... but “close”? No Way.

Totally irrelevant ... Dr. Quest and Race Bannon will simply strap on their jet packs and drop paint filled baggies on these so-called invisible planes.

I could shield a spacecraft from x-rays and gamma rays.

My wife says I have one that bends sounds waves, because I never hear what she says.

I tried to learn the language and kept spitting on my teacher... eventually he took his sword-thingy and came after me... I was killed in the fight but later reconstituted on planet Alderon with Anijin Skywalker.

That sounds fantastic. It's just the thing for NASA. But being invisible is better. If anyone diagrees with me, they can flame on.

We can sell that technology to the Chinese for campaign contributions that will make us a shoe-in in '08.

Think of the possibilities for the burka business. All you’d see coming down the street is two eyes. WOW! I like it. There are many, many days, especially when child was younger, that I would have loved to have had a cloaking device. “Mommy, Mommy, where are you?!” Just then a voice out of nowhere says, “I told you no cookies before supper!” Kid immediately puts the lid back on the cookie jar and says, “Okay, God.” So many possibilities.
