[edit] "Drown themselves"!?
"Due to the nature of PMA raising your body temperature, it is easy for a person to drink so much water that they acutally drown themselves."
This is really dubious. Drowning occurs from filling one's lungs with water. Conscious people who inhale water will reflexively choke and cough to clear their lungs. I'm removing this sentence. --Shyland 00:58, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
As Shyland correctly points out, "drowning" does not correctly describe this phenomenon. It is correctly described as Water intoxication. This phenomenon is, as the Wikipedia article states, sometimes fatal. Can we agree to re-edit the PMA article so that it includes a reference (and link) to "water intoxication"?
