I didn't say that.
If you and the people you knew didn't do it but other people did somewhere, it is safe to assume that it exists. Right? Some people thought yoga was new.

That isn't what my posts to JonoBN14 were about. To Jono, I'm talking about water consumption, in general, and how people drinking water throughout the day didn't just start with the bottled water craze. I'm not talking about the 8 glasses rule.
It's obviously a much bigger deal and more advertised today--that doesn't mean that drinking water throughout the day didn't exist before it became such a big deal to the masses of North America.
