Self Cleaning Clothes

Much has been made of the fact that none of the characters ever change their clothes. There have been numerous questions about personal hygiene. I would therefore like to direct you to these two articles about self cleaning clothes.

New Scientist article about using bacteria to clean clothes.

CNN article about a Chinese development in nanotechnology.

Still, it all seems pretty obvious now. Trent, Juni and everyone else all wear clothes that clean themselves and perhaps the wearer too. Alternately it could just be that FL is a game and it would have been too damn complicated to include multiple costume changes (or maybe I'm just being too cynical).

CODENAME: ...uh, CODENAME?

Well you never see a kitchen, bathroom, bedroom either, its just asumed that they are there and are used. Beyond that, it would be a waist of time to include scenes of this in the game as it is a waist to use them in movies as well.

Well, now that is another thought that could explain Trent's sissy walk: Never going to the toilet.
