Put the team on your camelbak

The title is not really indicative of what this post is about - the only thing the same has to do with camelbaks. I use a camelbak. A clear 750ml camelbak with a gray top and gray spout thing. It goes pretty much everywhere I go - in my backpack to class, to work, on my desk all evening at home, to football games (empty through the gates of course) and wherever else I happen to be. The design of the camelbak makes it very easy and convenient to drink an entire 750ml waterbottle in an alarmingly short amount of time. It is one handed operation and a one movement operation versus screw tops and other varieties, and while it is in use mode it is not easily spillable. This is probably a contributing feature to why I drink so much, it is easy to passively sip water down very quickly because there is also no need to tip the bottle back. The straw reaches all the way to the bottom and allows people to consume water while continuing to face forward and, for student users, they can stay focused on their work. Other waterbottles that require a screw on cap etc are more cumbersome to use.
