Riding on the coattails of the recent invention of the Moving Walkway, another set of graduate students at Amaranth University claim to have created a Cause/Effect Nullifier. If this is true, it could revolutionize both campus life and "real-world" technological development, by allowing, among other things, for students to ace a test before studying and allowing applied physics researchers to write papers and build inventions before doing the requisite experiments.
The device was tested in the student parking lot of the Condensed Matter Physics lab, where one of the inventors had locked himself out of his car. Reportedly, he was able to open the doors, retrieve his keys, and then use them to unlock the doors. Other researchers are veiwing this news with skepticism, however, as there are also reports of heavy consumption of alcohol going in the area at the time.
