Maybe I WILL get to be a superhero someday

Ok, I belong to one of them Yahoo groups (well, actually, I belong to an embarrasing number of Yahoo groups, but a vast majority of them are for the posting, exchange, and enjoyment of pornographic photos. I'm especially fond of one called GooeyGlasses. But I digress) called The Borg Collective (stop that laughing over there). As you might imagine, the fine folks of Borg-land are quite taken with all kinds of cybernetics fun. Today, there was a post about a Berkeley university project to build a below-the-waist exoskeleton. You can read the info yourself, but basically, this thing enhances strength and endurance (of the legs--THE LEGS--I'm talking to you, Fock--I don't want any "below the waist strength and endurance tee hee" crap from you).

This is great--if they can just get to gettin' on the arms, maybe some sort of jet belt for flight, I'll be either fighting crime or commiting crime like nobody's business. Then, if they can come up with a gadget for x-ray vision, I won't have to belong to all of those Yahoo porn clubs.

Its a word its a plan its Letterman!
