Encrypted Ammunition

[thewayne]

Someone has been granted a patent that when you pull the trigger on a gun, a radio signal is sent to the bullet in the chamber and the charge only goes off if the correct key is sent.

I'm posting it because the geek comments on Slashdot about this are pretty funny.

Some funny, some insightful, and a good many of them point out the important part of the patent: It's useless.
