Nanotube gloves give you spider powers
Spider-Man, Spider-Man, does what ever a spider can. And in the next few years you might be able to pull off some of those crazy wall-crawling stunts, too. Professor Nicola Pugno thinks nanotubes built into gloves and shoes could support the weight of an average man, allowing him to crawl along any surface. There's no word if it would support the weight of the average comic-book fan, so we'll have to wait until 2017, when Pugno predicts the first Spider-Man suit to be released into the wild. Now if we could only get real web shooters instead of those cheesy toys, we could have a legion of superheroes fighting crime around the world.

At last, nano tech makes its debut with something that appeals to the public at large: a spiderman suite for over sized comic book readers.
I mean, other scientists are working on AIDS, cancer, heart disease.
These guys are going: "No, I'm going to devote myself to spider man suites."
"I think that's much more important."
"Sure thousands are dying needlessly but this... this' gotta happen."

Geeze bro... people die every day, it's gotta happen. The world is just too full. The Spiderman Suit represents a possibility. Could you picture an Emergency service worker able to scale a building? A fireman able to withstand the heat of a burning building? SON... think beyond your obvious cure the world liberalism...
Get out there and live till you die.
