    More important question: Has anyone ever squeezed the filter (with the grounds) to get those last few drops of preciousness? not that i have of course, it's just a hypothetical question, i mean, anyone who would do that would be mad, although there could be awfully good reasons for doing something like that - why are you looking at me like that? i didnt say i did that! you're always attacking that which you dont understand - no, i'm not being defensive, alright, maybe i am being defensive... ;) Jeremy Kimball

          mmmm... Starbucks Americano.... I love reading headlines about coffee's cancer-preventing properties. Makes it that much more enjoyable to drink it.

            My taste buds never grew up enough to appreciate much more than very milky coffee. I do enjoy tea, horlicks and hot chocolate at both work and home however. Also, do Starbucks Iced Mocha Fraps count as coffee? :-O

Coffee isn't the most pleasant of tastes but is okay in very small doses. I drank rather a little too much of it in my youth 17-22 whilst working as a developer. It didn't do me a lot of good. I did 20 years without alcohol between the ages of 10 - 30. It does tend to depend on what you drink; personally I can't stand proper beer but can cope with the taste of lager.

                              I donot drink tea or coffee either. Of the two I prefer coffee, just in case I decide to have a cup. I generally kept off from the two just cos I did not want to make a habit. Once during aclient meeting, the client guy was so shocked at me not having tea. Asked me: how I live without tea. later hecorrected his question to: why I live without tea :-D Smitha Every person, all the events of your life, are there because you have drawn them there.

                                What is it that you call 'filter coffee'? I make coffee every morning from freshly ground beans, placed in a paper filter, and drowned in hot water. Instant coffees are a poor substitute for the real thing, and unfortunately most coffee vending machines today use instant powders which taste only slightly like real coffee. When I was a kid, servicing vending machines with my grandpa, the coffee machines actually made real coffee. A spool of filter paper was fed into the bottom of a mixing bowl, coffee grounds were dropped into the bowl, and hot water was pumped into the bowl to make a cup of real, fresh-brewed coffee. Today the machines just dump fake coffee powder into the cup and add water - such a waste! "Your village called -
                                They're missing their idiot."
