Kate & everyone-

You will be proud to hear that Dr. Joe, even as the announcer at Ford’s Sweet Repeat, had Dew in hand.

Upon seeing that, I had to add some statistics our team made…thanks to our recent grad we call Tree for crunching the numbers (I’m assuming these are right, as well)…

'Assuming that on average (this includes parties) a normal Sie-H2O-Bot member would drink 6 cans of Dew a day…

This means that during the 6 weeks…

1 Sie-H2O-Bot member = 3,024 oz (252 cans or 47.5 2-liter bottles of Dew)

24 (the number I used for the team…this accounts for people who actually don’t do the Dew) Sie-H2O-Bot members = 72,576 oz (6,048 cans or 1,141 2-Liter bottles of Dew)

…some more facts…
The team as a whole consumed
1,028,160 calories from Dew alone…thats
42,840 calories per peron in the 6 weeks…
1,020 calories per person per day in the 6 weeks…’

Now, I dont drink 6 cans of Dew a day, but I know some kids who do, so the number seems pretty safe.

Just sending out some useless information to brighten your day. ::grin::

Sorry!! But this is what’s gonna keep me up when I’m trying to study when it’s late and all that junk… And I need to try to make it last at least a little while… That’s the theory at least… So for now, that’s what I’m doing… :slight_smile:

I completety agree with you. Coke has a better taste and texture than the Dew. Although Dew is good, but Coke is my favorite. So you’re not the only one.

P.S. Actually I like Coke just fine. In fact I like it enough that when I lived on Taiwan for a year, I actually routinely drank it without the benefit of refidgeration (i.e. luke warm). That’s what I call desperate!

Ewwwww…thats just like my 'rents, who only buy the caffiene-free diet stuff (I still have yet to figure out why they buy it)…once I go to meetings, I’m glad to get my hands on any ‘high-test’ soda there, whether its Dew or Coke or whatever.

That’s bad, but I think I have taken the cake. Luke-warm diet caffine free coke. That’s right, it was one of the worst experiences of my life, but I was really thirsty…

Ok, I prefer the refrigerated kind, but I have to agree…it’s all about the Diet Coke. I’m personally advocating that it become my team’s official drink. :slight_smile:

(And yes, I drink it because I actually like the fake sugary taste!)

I generally have to do that when I forget to put them in the refridgerator…the value of Coke (particularly the caffeine) is greater than the pain of drinking one warm. My dad just thinks I’m crazy though…
