My question - how do they plan to invisiblize the tracks that the tanks leave? And another question - how are we supposed to know where our own tanks are? All the soldiers will prbably have to have special glasses that allow them to see the invisible people, planes, tanks, etc.
Also, just wait till the terrorists get ahold of this. 9/11 will happen all over again...with invisible planes.

Not to mention that paying for all of this, and then the special glasses that the soldiers would have to wear to see what was going on, would cost a ridiculous sum of money, sending America into an even larger amount of debt. As if we don't have enough already.

I'm not sayin...I'm just sayin. The concept is cool. The result? Maybe not so much.

if people stopped inventing stuff just because of a few little problems this world would never be the place it is today. It's people like you that keep us optimists going. Get out of the way of progress cause you can't stop it, not sayin just sayin

Not being a pessimist, just realistic. I mean, you could say that about anything. It doesn't make it anymore realistic. Optimistic is the way I usually side, but this just seems out of the ball park, if you know what I mean.
I didn't expect you to agree with me...I just had a few questions that I found would have interesting answers.
Get out of the way of progress? I never knew asking a few questions and pointing out some faults qualified as "getting in the way". Lol

So...you think this could really work and would improve our country's chances? Just wondering....don't take these as personal attacks against you. I like looking at the whole picture rather than just the cool neat parts. Couldn't they be spending all this money getting people off the streets rather than creating even more effective killing machines? Not saying...just saying...
