The most disturbing part of this article is excerpted here.
"Drinking too much water can be dangerous; it can lead to water intoxication, or hyponatremia, in which there is not enough salt in the body's fluids outside the cells. Both conditions can lead to serious health problems, and even death."

Proceed with caution my dear friends, too much of a good thing...
