The Human thirst mechanism is a faulty one at best. It tells you you're thirsty after the point at which you really needed to hydrate, and it tells you you're not thirsty before you really have had enough. The basic rule of thumb is to drink until your urine runs clear. That indicates that you are well hydrated. Of course, if you are on suppluments or multi-vitamins that may also affect your urine color. I know mine is usually bright orange! =/
