EU bans claim that water can prevent dehydration
Brussels bureaucrats were ridiculed yesterday after banning drink
manufacturers from claiming that water can prevent dehydration.
Producers of bottled water are now forbidden by law from making the claim
and will face a two-year jail sentence if they defy the edict, which comes

Um, aren't those the folks who outlawed self-defense items, like guns
and (butter!) knives?

My vote went to "I don't care/waste of time and money."
