Now this is fabric I can use! 1. rent out space to 'personal sponsors.' 2. change the message on the fly to a) catch the eye of that cute girl over there, or b) tell that tail-gater what I really think of him. 3. use as a bicycling safety vest at night or, 4. give it to my son and not have to write his name on the tag...
