Smart....?

On my morning run I pick up litter from the street. Today I retrieved a discarded water bottle that was labeled "Smart Water". It made me think of the aphorism "The beginning of wisdom is to call things by their right name." I think the origin of that saying may be Chinese.
"Smart Water"...that costs more than gasoline, packaged in plastic, with no fluoridation...and on and go its liabilities. Lars suggested a more apropos title would be "Sucker Water"!
