I was wondering about this. I'd think that something that could take out a radio controlled plane with the flick of a switch would be something that the SS would be interested in.

Post #42 is a riot. Are you saying the MIT guys hired this guy to pull this off.

I thought this guy, Troy Hurtubise, has been working on these types of things for decades. I don't see how the "gag" works, not that I don't believe you. I just don't like to discredit someone without knowing for sure.

The Ig Nobel prizes are real, so that by itself doesn't prove it's a hoax.... They are awarded in a somewhat serious, but somewhat sarcastic, way.... kinda like the "Darwin Awards"....
