The coolest thing I’ve read today:
U.S. scientists have developed a microfiber fabric that generates its own electricity, making enough current to recharge a cell phone or ensure that a small MP3 music player never runs out of power.
If made into a shirt, the fabric could harness power from its wearer simply walking around or even from a slight breeze, they reported on Wednesday in the journal Nature.

Walk around with an umbrella I guess. : ) No word on whether water just wrecks the shirt or fries the wearer.
