No, but if the only reason you are passing 36 ounces of carmel-colored,
caffinated goodness through your digestive tract is out of habit, maybe you
should reconsider (I did, and it worked for me, YMMV, obviously).

If your consumption rate is based on a greater need than simply habit, then
the above doesn't apply - "greater need" could be as simple as thirst, need
for caffine, whatever, but simply drinking out of habit, well it sorta
becomes little more than an exercise in fluid processing, and recycling
(both inside your body *and* for the recycling plant that gets your can
collection).
