    Yay!

    My friend forwarded me this link earlier and wow, it feels like I am living in the future now. I read about power armors when I was a wee-lad and now it appears that we are going to deploy them in Iraq in 2008.

    Also- Rytheon, a massive US Defense conglomerate just purchased the company that makes these exoskeletons- Sarcos. That means they will have the contracts with the government and the know how to make it all work.

    This video rocks!
