History of the Seven Up Company's Lithiated Lemon Soda
7 UP : It was never completely clear what the name referred to but despite the company’s secrecy over the matter there isn't a good reason to think that it’s not named after the drink’s seven ingredients. An original tagline went: “Seven natural flavors blended into a savory, flavory drink with a real wallop.” One of those ingredients, of course, was lithium and that might have been the ‘Up’ bit in the name.

Lithium citrate (Lith-ee-um sit-rate) is a medicine which is used in depression, bipolar disorder, mania, self-harming behavior and treating aggressive behavior.
The US Government banned lithium citrate use in foodstuffs in 1948 and, presumably with a licence to delay, 7 Up stopped including lithium citrate in its recipe two years later.

The Ancient Astronaut Craze of the 1970s and 1980s
Our home is on the northern edge of Goodstuff's lunar crater and we are claiming squatters rights. We are also claiming mineral and ice rights on the northern ridge and slopes of Goodstuff crater. Furthermore, we have the right of surface and space access to our home.
The intent of this declaration is to give future Goodstuff’s Cyber World generations a “lunar advantage”.
Politics no problem, say US and Russian spacefarers
