Spider-man webbing soon to be a reality

I don't feel sorry for Peter Parker. Not in the least. I mean, here's a guy who has invented one of the holy grails of modern technology--superstrong silk--and instead of getting rich off the patent he keeps it to himself. Yes, he fights crime, but imagine if police departments all over the world had access to his invention. Not to mention construction companies, doctors, mountain rangers, rescue squads--the collective good accomplished by his invention would have been far greater if Peter Parker had licensed his invention for mass production.

But noooo--the only way he helps his Aunt make the rent is to use the webbing to glue a camera to the ceiling so he can take crappy pictures.

These scientists, however, probably won't be so dumb.
