The wonders of science
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has come up with technology that
will develop biologically inspired climbing aids to enable soldiers to scale vertical walls constructed from typical building materials, without using ropes or ladders.
It uses the same idea that allows geckos to climb glass. Cool stuff.
No problem

Comments are welcome and discussion is open and encouraged.
I will delete comments that are profane and ad hominem, though I will often include profane words when they are part of an original quote (I will not play games with little asterisks; we know what the word is).
I will also delete comments that link to a commercial site.
