80% water, 10% caffeine

Heather sez:
"You've heard it for years -- drink at least eight glasses of water a day. But now some scientists say that may be an urban myth. CNN Medical Correspondent Elizabeth Cohen joined CNN's Paula Zahn to discuss the issue."

Here's the best quote from the piece:

"Diet Coke, 99 percent water -- you could get your water there."

To all those people who've disparaged my Diet Coke habit over the years: screw off!
