Today's lunch time conversation

Beast: I was reading in Scientific American about some bizarre US military research projects. There's a nuclear hand-grenade. A one kilo-ton yield you can throw...

Pen: Wow. (pause) You'd need a pretty good arm.

Beast: I don't think they're worried about the practicalities. There's also a Star Trek-style transporter project.

Both: Bwahaha.

I think someone has managed to transport an atom... but I dunno, I'm going to have to lose *so* much weight before that becomes anywhere near practical for me!

I think they should figure out a way to build the transport so it does that for you. "Step inside and we'll take you where you want to go. And leave your fat behind!" *grin*

Now that's the kind of research we could use!
