Get in on the John

Behold this video puny mortals and tremble in fear and awe at this display of my almighty video embedding skills!

Sorry, I was just hoping some of this clip's awesomness had rubbed off on me. Check it out! Somehow these japenese scientists found time between designing giant robots and fleeing enormous reptiles to create an optical camoflage technique which allows the wearer to blend in to his surroundings almost invisibly! This is no april fools joke! ( But google has a good one. ) Finally we can be like James Bond with his invisible car, or the Predator with his sweet jungle hunting skills. Ever get so embarrased that you just want to disapear? Go for it. Wanted to go sneaking around Hogwarts after hours, but lacked an invisibility cloak like that snob Harry Potter? Here's your chance! The possibilities are endless.

Or are they? The technique actually involves a two-way mirror, a projector, and some very shiny clothing, so banish any thoughts you had about that invisibilty-aided blackmailing racket. I don't even think you'd be invisible from the back, that is if you even lugged all the equipment around with you and asked people to wait while you set it all up. *Sigh* Oh well. Yet another dream of mine crushed like a fuzzy squirel under the wheels of a mac truck.
