The research, funded by the American military, paves the way for stealth tanks, aircraft and even warships that can disappear from enemy soldiers' sights.

They better get it out of the University of Bezerkely before some useful-idiot communist shares it with China and Russia.

How many times have they recycled this story in one form or another? Every few years, they re-run it.

I have a Hollywood art director in the family who told me how Predator’s cloaking was accomplished. The actor wore a blue suit and an image of the jungle background was projected onto him using the blue screen technique.

I thought the Romulins had it first.

I can trust a Klingon, but I could never trust a Romulin.
Those Romulins are just like Democrats, sneaky liars.
