I had a bottle of a Sobe “LEAN” juice drink the other day. The “lean” name in the beverage isn't the reason I drink it. I happened to notice a little saying under the cap, “Smarter not Harder.” That seems to sum up the Lean/TPS philosophy, not just the beverage philosophy. My camera phone images aren't great, but here you go.

Hi Mark,
seems to be that LEAN is possible in every aspect of daily life;-)
For us Lean Thinkers that’s quite clear, but what about the others? So top management of that company has got it “smarter not harder”.
