Pay attention 007 . . .
Is it a case of art imitating life, or someone at the Ministry of Defence finally realizing the tactical importance of wrist dart guns? (Something we at the Orion Foundation have been advocating for years. . .)
The BBC reported today that British Secret Service will be investing in a "gadget center," similar to the Q-Branch labs shown in the James Bond movies.
UK gets Bond-style gadget centre
Britain's secret service is getting a gadget centre like the one used by super spy James Bond.
In the Bond films, 007 gets a string of amazing tools from a team of expert inventors led by the character, Q.
The Ministry Of Defence has brought together the best scientists in the business to develop technology to help in the fight against terrorism.
The Counter-Terrorism Science and Technology Centre will make stuff to defuse bombs and sniff out explosives.
A team of 15 scientists will work on various projects at a top secret laboratory in Wiltshire.

I wonder if this means that all MI-5 agents will be traveling around in Aston-Martins? In either case, if you find yourself in the company of a rogue agent, make sure to twist the locks inward before opening the briefcase. Nothing like a blast of tear gas to ruin an otherwise uneventful train trip.
