Great moments of American innovativeness

Another unsung triumph of American imagination and skill: <a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/1361462/CIA-recruited-cat-to-bug-Russians.html">Project Acoustic Kitty</a>.

Mr Marchetti said that the first live trial was an expensive disaster. The technology is thought to have cost more than £10 million. He said: "They took it out to a park and put him out of the van, and a taxi comes and runs him over. There they were, sitting in the van with all those dials, and the cat was dead."

That has GOT to be the funniest yet sick thing I have read in a long time.
Anime, one of the few things about the internet that doesn't make me hate the internet.

I had indeed heard about this before and it amused me. Reading as to how they went about achieving it kinda bugs me though. Yet I cant help but laugh at it being run over by a taxi.. The cat must have looked ragged as hell too. Badass kitty was badass.

All of the stitches probably would have tipped the Russians off anyway.
