Harry Potter Soon to Have One Less Advantage Over The Rest of Us




(Nahhhhh Harry, nahhhh.)








Scientists are now saying they are one step closer to creating materials which would enable invisibility. Researchers demonstrated for the first time that they could cloak a 3-D object. The cloak works by using artificially engineered materials to redirect light away from the object. Cloaking uses materials known as metamaterials to deflect light, radar and other waves around the object.



Take that Harry Potter. That dumb ass cloak of yours isn't special anymore. Soon all of us are going to be running around with capes that can hide us from the world. This cloaking device, once it gets into the open market, will make it easier for all of us to rob, steal, and murder. It will also make it much easier to watch people (for me women, but whatever floats your boat) get undressed through their window without having to worry about whether or not they can see you. It also makes it easier to play funny tricks on people. Imagine just standing in the street and letting people bump into you. They'll think they're running into nothing and go crazy, but in reality they will have just hit you. It's wonderful. You can also rob a bank without anyone knowing. Just walk right up to the money, momentarily reach your hand out of the cloak (the workers will just see a floating hand and freak out), take the money, and leave.

More likely than any of the previously mentioned uses for the cloak are military uses for the cloak. If you think we killed alot of people now wait until the day when no one can see us do it. The only reason we haven't murdered every last Iraqi is because someone will see us do it, tell on us, and then we'll be in trouble. There would be riots and protests all over the world, even here in the U.S. However, if no one knew we were even there and we just killed everyone, nothing would come of it. It's perfect. Total world domination here we come.
