Drink the equivalent of four cups of coffee a day at Starbucks and you may have hallucinations. "People who drink at least 330 milligrams of the stimulant a day were three times as likely to have hallucinations as those who consumed less than 10 milligrams a day," according to a report at Bloomberg on a study conducted at Durham University in the UK.
But we still love you.

First, the study is from a UK tea-drinker university. Second, four cups is for sissies. When we lived in the Philippines (where we could pick it off the trees), coffee offset the tendency to avoid dehydration through drinking the wonderful Filipino beers. Third, the US "sissy coffee" is no match for the Moka Sumatra (google Dean's Beans) which is capable of raising Lazarus from the dead. (A daily resurrection necessary given my age.)

Ah, that's sweet Mard. Thanks!
Frank, you're an inspiration. I'm going to try that Moka Sumatra.
