Johnson, Bechizza, and Brownlee, all focused on a single fascinating subject? My modest supply of adjectives is overwhelmed by the gleeful anticipation of their regular dispatches. The hydrogen-filled gasbaggery of far too much that passes for high-tech gadget-related journalism is about to meet the white-hot pitchforks of the new BBG crew, and I can't wait. Gentlemen, start your blowtorches!

As someone who has suffered (and I mean suffered) from a kidney stone in the past, I now drink a lot of water. My urologist recommended outputting at least 2 liters a day, which required drinking considerably more than that. The point is not to remain hydrated but to keep the urine as diluted as possible. The more concentrated the urine becomes (as you dehydrate), the more opportunity for minerals in your urine to crystalize and begin forming stones.
