Dream come true

I logged into Google Reader this morning and saw the following headline: Scientists weave invisibility cloak. Seriously, folks. The future has officially come.

Reading the article reveals that it is slightly less impressive than it looks at first blush, but only slightly. The "cloak" is not something mobile that you can just wear around, but something fixed to hide a bump on a flat surface from microwaves. But the idea is there. They can bounce electromagnetic radiation off of something and make it look like it's not even there. Now that's cool. Who knows, maybe the invisible motorcycle isn't that far away...
