The water bottle solution
i could go on and on and link and link about bottled water...we all know it's an evil enterprise and absolutely unnecessary. here's stephen colbert's take on it, in classic truthiness and humor.
my friend sara was in town this weekend and gave me a Platypus bottle. not only will it be great for travel, hikes and sport, but its anti-microbial and compact-construction sure beat my Nalgene and Sigg bottles, which I'm truly in love with. i've had my Sigg bottle since 2001, when I purchased it in London, and have a couple loving dents but otherwise no other sign of wear. it's still the freshest-tasting, most versatile bottle i own. even makes a great wine flask for movies. but i can tell the innovative Platypus will win me over soon enough.
whether Nalgene, Platypus or Sigg...or even a nice flashy pint glass from your favorite brewery, just use a reusable container when drinking your water. come on. even Colbert has your number on this one.

Jayhawk (the 1946 rendition) pint glass on my desk at all times at work! Easy to clean, water tastes great, and I show my school spirit. -SN
