It's about time for this. In the eighties I grew up watching the bionic man, night rider, MacGyver etc. The promise was broken. I'm old now and my knees are shot and I'm suffering with cateracts and a crap health care system that takes years to get it addressed. So hurry up science, I'm not impressed.
The six million dollar man adjusted for inflation is a paltry $42M! Plus with advances in technology and medicine, it'll probably cost much less. I wouldn't count on it being covered by insurance though.
