Stephen writes "Do you folks remember that show "The 6 Million Dollar Man?" Well, it looks like some folks from the Pentagon do. Here's a clip from a new article we've just whipped up on this bionic subject: "The exoskeleton of the future will look something like a body suit and function to assist/improve all natural muscle movements. This could theoretically allow people to, excuse the cliché, leap tall buildings in a single bound, or be faster than a speeding bullet etc. The 'exoskeleton' will be designed primarily for military use but the applications for prosthetics or assistive technologies are endless."
