So, maybe we won't need the giant space rock after all. What am I supposed to do with all these frelling Immaculate Order of the Falling Sky® telescopes?
One free Glo-Stick® IOotFS condom to the first person — male, female or otherwise — to think of a practical, non-military and non-surveillance use for invisibility that would generate enough profit to make this fiasco attractive to greedy corporate pigs.
Anyway, yeah, invisibility...
Invisibility cloak is latest amazing ‘metamaterial'
Scientists Create Cloak of Invisibility
I think I'd like to like the future to stop now, please.

"oooh. Chicken McRiblet Shake...mmm. I'm loving it.™"
Your companion marvels at your confused expression. "What?" they ask.
"I think God just told me to go to McDonald's..."

By the way, if you want to get Daughter of Hounds supercheap, go to Buy.com, pre-order the book for $10.64, get another $20 of merchandise, and check out using Google Checkout. Through October 31st, Buy.com is offering $10 off a $30 purchase if you use Google Checkout. And the discount is renewable, so if you have, say, $300 worth of stuff you want, you can break the order into $30 chunks and save $10 each time, with free shipping on most items in the US.
(NO, I don't work for Buy.com. I'm just cheap.)

and on another take, gosh, wouldn't that be a whole new sex thing to explore...not detachable bits, but invisible ones.
And hey, you could go swimsuit free on the beach with your naughty bits all x-ed out for the puritianical (or aesthetically aware, for many cases).
