just checked back in -- wow, there's really a lot of life in this thread! thanks for the well wishes. Intrigued by the pinch test, Malkin, I'd say my flapdown is slow, but need a benchmark. I used to work with a librarian who programmed her computer to bug her every hour with "Stretch! and Look away!" Maybe mine should add "drink something!" Biciclista, I like the hydrating the night before idea -- I bet I'm always so worried about event pee-control that I do the opposite. Catrin, I don't actually know what Accelerade is, will look it up.
Excuse me, I have to go drink some water!

Accelerade is good stuff with one caveat- it tastes very chalky when it gets warm.marni

Oddly enough I have not found it to get too bad when it gets warm - I use the Lemon-Lime flavor, but perhaps I just have strange taste-buds
I tried Perpetuam (sp?) and just couldn't tolerate it for some reason.
