...demonstrations where we can snipe at blowup dolls wearing million dollar armor with some high tech rifles.
"...protect a wearer from long-range gunfire by detecting the incoming bullets and administering small shocks to the appropriate muscles required for moving out of the way."
Blowup dolls don't have muscles... You'll have to wear it for them.
Aircraft land and spend a lot of time in maintenance. If they stay up there indefinitely they wouldn't get all that attention.
Balloons would have less moving parts, but they could still fail. So could the emergency parachute they'd have. Hey, they could double as a weapon!

Bring the people to the resources, not the other way around.
Religion plays a part in the lives of a significant number of people, whereas theoretical physics doesn't (from their perspective).

Surely one hour's R&D expenses could be spared for the LHC.
So something cool might actually happen when all the planets are aligned? Portal from Sun to Neptune?
So here's an idea:
Require politicians to have a clue on whatever they're administering.

Yeah. Sure it wastes a bit of screen width, but its doesn't make iGoogle completely useless like so many people are crying.

With the Earth's population rising, I think it could be possible for MS to continue growing in size and profits, while OSS grows in market share.
Provide him with a computer. Provide him with help when he asks (or not, figuring things out yourself is best).
Show him how useful it can be to write programs to make the computer do whatever you want.

Agreed, lets open a Australian dealership :D
So you type better when distracted by shiny ponies?
Also, any sentence with sufficient the use of the word 'sufficient' or 'sufficiently' is true.
