ultranos: kino standing, staring ahead (controlling the flow of ideas)
I know I mentioned to some people (Splash, Trout, and Besyd in particular) at D*C that I had an article from Popular Science about real technologies very close to doing what Iron Man can. I believe I also promised either scanning them or copying them into PDF form.

Before I did that, however, I decided to be clever:

Building the Real Iron Man from the May 2008 issue of Popular Science. Same article, but in their web archives. It's on Raytheon's XOS exoskeleton suit, and it's obviously nowhere near Tony Stark's suit, but hey, we're getting there.

You are one of my favorite crack pushers!

You can ask a number of my SG1 friends. Sam and I have a scary lot in common. -g-

You may share all of this kind of thing you want with me. We can both then wallow in the glee. :^D

I take my job very seriously.

Oh, I adore Sam and want to be like her more than is probably healthy. :D It's like I found a character to identify with and latched on or something. :P

I shall endeavor to do more of this then!
