Canadian inventor Troy Hurtubise could rewrite the physics rulebook if
his newest creation lives up to the claims of its supporters, who
apparently include MIT engineers and French government officials. The
Angel Light, they say, makes solid objects transparent.
Hurtubise is no stranger to the science headlines, having received a
1998 IgNobel prize in safety engineering for his RoboCop-inspired bear-
and bulldozer-resistant suit. He has since developed Fire Paste, a
substance that withstands blowtorch temperatures and cools extremely
quickly (and is highly reminiscent of Starlite, developed by British
hairdresser Maurice Ward a decade ago and featured in Far Out) and,
more recently, lightweight, blastproof cushions.

Nearly choked on reading this:
"The cannon has side effects: it knocks out electrical motors and TVs and
cancels the effects of stealth technologies. It also has a detrimental
effect on living creatures: until he fitted a shield, using it made
Hurtubise seriously ill and several goldfish died after being targeted in
their bowl."

"black, white, red, AND fluorescent light". Jeepers!!!
What kind of paper is the Guardian, that they would publish
rubbish like this?
-E
P.S. This article has a picture
http://www.engadget.com/entry/1234000580028253/
It looks like it all stems from some, eh, manliness issues.
Also, note the anti-grizzly suit in the background. I
wonder how they're selling.

It's one of those "What in the world"-type features - Nutters 'R Us.
