Sweet. Sounds like it could actually be an interesting book, too.

I'm Batman.

Apparently, Batman has something in common with the W and Z bosons which have a mean life of 3X10^-25 seconds. Short-lived maybe, but awesome through and through.

Becoming Batman: Is it possible? From the page: To investigate whether someone like Bruce Wayne could physically transform himself into a one-man wrecking crew, ScientificAmerican.com turned to E. Paul Zehr, associate professor of kinesiology and neuroscience at the University of Victoria in British Columbia and a 26-year practitioner of Chito-Ryu karate-do. Zehr's book, Becoming Batman: The Possibility of a Superhero (The Johns Hopkins University Press), due out in October, tackles our very question.
