Oh, thats neat!  I can't wait for coca-cola to advertise to me by using my friends chest!  I wonder where else we can put advertising to fill and dull our minds??  Sorry, I'm not a fan of ads...but those shirts ARE cool!  

Related, but entirely different.  These are self charging shirts that that work my inducing greater amounts of static electricity and then harnessing it into a battery.  This article is only semi-informative, I saw a thing on discovery about it last year, if you can find a clip from that I'd like to have the link...but I don't remember much about it except how it works.
