    Still trying to cut grams so you can hike faster, farther and easier? That's totally old school. Now, you just need to wear a robotic suit!

    I love how the Army is funding this research. They can pay for the development of a robotic exoskeleton, but they still cannot make a halfway decent (edible) meal for troops in the field.. Maybe they wouldn't need this technology if they didn't force soldiers to carry 60 pounds of gear that they don't need. IMO this is the antithesis of "ultralight".

    I'll bet you'd see the "bear problem" in a whole different light. So would the bear. "Brer' Bear, ah'm gonna knock yo haid cleeeeeen off…" *

    * For those of you who remember the Uncle Remus tales in that delightful movie classic, "Song of the South".
