 campaign was designed not to promote being regular, but to encourage people to have a DP at 10, 2, and 4 in order
 to keep their energy levels up.

 That's right, I remember buying the bottles (back when they were green glass and back when there was a period in
 the drink's name, ya young whippersnapper!) and saw the 10 2 4 thing. However, I've always felt that Dr Pepper
 was more of an afternoon drink than a morning drink (I usually have a Coke with breakfast -- I hate coffee and hot
 drinks).
