I was in Vons recently doing some shopping, and discovered that Vons/Safeway had a product line of beverages -- originally bottled water, as I discovered on researching it, but recently extended to sodas -- that looks to have been the inspiration for the drink you see advertised all over Praetoria:


In case you can't make out the brand name:


"But in our enthusiasm, we could not resist a radical overhaul of the system, in which all of its major weaknesses have been exposed, analyzed, and replaced with new weaknesses."
-- Bruce Leverett, Register Allocation in Optimizing Compilers

I see damage, defense, damage resistance, and some unidentifiable ones.

Oh...wrong inspiration...


There I was between a rock and a hard place. Then I thought, "What am I doing on this side of the rock?"
