Cloak detection: Exhaust, Tachyons, or neither? I'm partial to the tachyon method myself. Anyone else, for or against?

The thermodynamic impossibility of making it completely emissionless?
You can do pretty good, by limiting power generation and concentrating your emissions in hard-to-detect forms and directions, though.
You could also buffer the emissions temporarily... for thermal emissions, it would be like refridgerating the outer hull and pumping all the heat into a specially designed container until it melts down.
