* During the early 1940s scientists working in Swobo's secret underground lab had been recklessly pushing the envelope of evaporative efficiency (e²) in an effort to produce a material capable of cooling a soldier (or rider) before he even got hot. During what might otherwise have been a serious accident, these scientists also discovered that their miracle fiber could also evaporate spilled beer nearly instantaneously, effectively protecting the wearer from spill-based embarrassment. What they produced was e²-tech fabric, a material designed to maximize coolness in every situation. Recognizing the humanitarian potential of their discovery, Swobo's scientists published the process of manufacturing this super-material. Today it is used around the world and is now known as polyester.
