      Scientists in the US say they are a step closer to developing materials that could render people invisible.
      Editors note: I am sceptical but will read on with an open and enquiring mind.

      So far they can make things a billionth of a metre invisible
      Editors note: Things this size seem pretty much invisible already though?

      The new system works like water flowing around a rock, the researchers said
      Editors note: Surely we already have the technology to bend water around rocks?

      The research, funded by the US government, could one day be used in military stealth operations - with tanks made to disappear from the enemies' sight
      Editors note: Especially for a tank the size of a molecule.

            yeah what is it with these guys - want to have a say in every decision, finger in every pie etc but when it comes to taking responsibility for delivering something you cannot see em for dust......

            is this common?
