wrote starship troopers right? (I should have googled this before I typed)
I couldn't find that, but I did find:There's also the "Technology is just magic that works" quote, not sure who said that tho.
Arthur C. Clarke - "Magic's just science that we don't understand yet."

From the Rick Cook 'Wiz Biz' series:
"Sufficiently advanced Magic is indistinguishable from Technology"

"Sufficiently advanced anything is indistinguishable from technical expertise"

I'd totally beat you to it if I wasn't working, curse your eyes.
I should be working.
At least I didn't post the link to the TVTropes page, or no one would be working.
Anyhow, I can probably make some superconductors now and get some shield generators going in my powersuit...
