Clothes That Kill

StriderA writes "Robert Engel, of Queens College at The City University of New York, and colleagues have developed a new defence against bacteria and fungi. It seems that they have created tiny molecular daggers that actually seek and destroy the fatty bacteria. Applications to include battling athletes foot to military uniforms that kill anthrax."

    I think some people are already wearing a variant of this that can kill at a distance. I was down at the local university the other day and I saw this ungodly sexy girl. Man, my heart started being so hard and fast I thought I was gonna have a heart attack! You can laugh, but if you had seen what she was wearing you probably would've dropped to your knees clutching your chest and gasping for breath, too!
