[at-l] The eternal question

[blisterfree at isp01.net (Brett)]

Increased fluid consumption during the day in conjunction 
with electrolyte changes in the body that somehow regulate 
overnight, making night time the right time for pee. All-day 
exercise is the overarching culprit. Or at least that's my 
totally unscientific theory.
