"I agree. The army wants a custom fiber. Did they say DS was too flexible to be used in a bulletproof vest? I haven't seen them say that."

well they tested ds and then requested custom silk...do you think they suddenly got a hankering for silk curtains immediately after the test?..

id prefer to think ds was too flexible than to think they discovered some other flaw..

"(notice how I didn't say anything about reducing elasticity, which is what gives spider silk it's unique properties)"

yea, I notice you didn't say kblb could make the fiber even more elastic either..why not?...not such a good idea maybe?..

theres a lot more than elasticity that makes ds unique..and you can spin it anyway you want, but elasticity is not a good quality in a bullet proof vest..

and yea, theres no doubt kim let the army know he could customize the silk..
