I have a feeling we'll be hearing more about the Seattle-based company FiveHumans in years go come. I just learned about the business, which produces T-shirts emblazoned with provocative statements about diabetes, asthma, heart disease, cancer and autism. A shirt about diabetes reads: "My syringe is not recreational." And a shirt about heart disease reads: "Number one killer." FiveHumans was started in 2007 by five Seattle-area residents who hope to raise awareness about these diseases and generate money for charities related to their cause. Very cool.
