Don't shout too loudly - these things are being developed for covert surveillance.If it isn't bad enough being watched as we travel around, you soon won't be safe in your home...
Artificial butterflies? Next thing we'll have artificial chaos. I thought we had plastic politicians for that sort of thing?They wanted to give my wife artificial respiration, I dais, "I've got money, I'll pay for the real thing."

That'd argue against their stealth capability, surely?"Artificial butterflies? Next thing we'll have artificial chaos. I thought we had plastic politicians for that sort of thing?" Heh!"Clever, but it remains a fact that God cannot be bettered." It's amazing how many new developments (particularly in robotics) are basing themselves on living organisms, isn't it?
