Invisible Tanks

Mad scientist Sir John Pendry at Britain's Ministry of Defence has developed a method to effectively render a full-sized tank invisible. The exact details remain top secret, but the system has something to do with using cameras and projectors to beam an image of the surrounding landscape onto a moving tank. Says a terrified soldier who witnessed a test of the method: "I looked across the fields and just saw grass and trees--but in reality I was staring down the barrel of a tank gun." Paranoid schizophrenics across the world are undoubtedly rejoicing at this confirmation of their most horrible suspicions. The Daily Mail has more details here.
