The government and the people haven't entirely been as one of late.

There's been a touch of friction, a frisson of discomfort in the relationship.

So it's uplifting when fears of schism are alleviated by one of the people's foremost representatives.

Yes, Tom Cruise offered a doe-eyed tweet about DARPA's forward progress.

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency is where so many scientific breakthroughs are enacted first.

So Cruise, himself a representative of Scientological progress, released a tweet Thursday that offered: "@DARPA getting closer to real-life #EdgeOfTomorrow exoskeleton...amazing! http://www.darpa.mil/NewsEvents/Releases/2013/08/22.aspx ... #TeamTC pic.twitter.com/WQPZvEemZi."

Accompanying this sofa-hopping excitement was a poster for his next, perhaps greatest movie "Edge Of Tomorrow." The link also led to a DARPA press release which glistened with joy about its exoskeletal progress.

This painted a beautiful picture of a world in which we could all wear "a comfortable, lightweight undersuit that would help prevent injury and boost endurance."

Our life partners will be pleased.
