I thought that was to measure the negative logarithm of the molar ionic concentration, ph balance, or I guess some other concentration? That's pretty hard core, getting close to the line on failure, but I guess what's the point of being a Doctor if you don't use that knowledge?

While I've got you online, what would be your medical opinion of drinking 64 fluid ounces in 15 miles, like someone mentioned? Or something like that. Flirting with renal failure? Or OK if you're flushing the system?
