   @fontana tea is legitimate as long as its whole leaf, not oxidized floor scrapings in cardboard bags

     Having recently added decaf !coffee to my daily routine, I hope these bacteria can be used to make decaf taste better: http://ur1.ca/49uvu

     @fontana,when I saw studies re: !coffee's positive health impact,I started drinking some #decaf in *addition* to my usual non-decaf regiment

     @bkuhn Isn't non-decaf a double negative? hehe. Just noticed it scrolling past, not nit picking :)

     @methoddan it is!

     @methoddan if you said caf, then you'd confuse it with a caf.

     @dandart Maybe

     @bkuhn Are you actually drinking soldiers "usual non-decaf regiment"? "Regimen" recommended instead. Caf or decaf soldiers hard to swallow.

     @fontana, apparently, the health benefits come from substances *other* than caffeine in the !coffee. I'm trusted CBS news on this, so YMMV

   • Bradley M. Kuhn Coffee , Algot Runeman

     @algotruneman, my !coffee intake is regimented well into a regimen.

     @bkuhn CBS News...... LOL! ;)

     If you were were wondering why I've added a few cups of decaf in afternoons to my 3 cups of regular !coffee in morning, see: ur1.ca/4ah5c

   • Bradley M. Kuhn Coffee , Richard Fontana

     @fontana, while studies are indicating !coffee might be good, they point out #caffeine isn't. I have a high caffeine daily intake as it is.

   • Bradley M. Kuhn Coffee , Richard Fontana

     @fontana,I don't really agree w/ you. It's a particularly #illogical position given that I'm drinking *both* regular & #decaf !coffee daily.

   • Jason Riedy Bradley M. Kuhn , Richard Fontana

     @fontana @bkuhn Or giving up taste, at the very least.

   • Bradley M. Kuhn Coffee , Richard Fontana

     @fontana, and, BTW, what's the deal with this. Now you're #troll'ing me about what type of !coffee I drink?!?! When will it end with you? :)

     ♺ @fontana: @bkuhn Drinking #decaf is like giving up on life

     Friday, 27-May-11 17:52:08 UTC
   • Bradley M. Kuhn Richard Fontana

     @fontana, I think you mean drinking #Sanka is like giving up on your life. I don't think it applies to all possible #decaf incarnations.

     @bkuhn Decaf is the devil, man! Oo

   • Bradley M. Kuhn Coffee , Fabian Scherschel , Richard Fontana

     @fontana @fabsh,I used to agree #decaf's #evil, but then met ppl who can't take caffeine for medical reasons. Should they be denied !coffee?

     Friday, 27-May-11 17:57:12 UTC
   • Jason Riedy Bradley M. Kuhn , Fabian Scherschel , Richard Fontana

     @bkuhn @fontana @fabsh Have you *seen* decaffeinated coffee before it's roasted? Even the better stuff? Not evil, just mangled.

     @bkuhn By that logic, I should be allowed to take morphine.

   • Bradley M. Kuhn Richard Fontana

     @fontana, the URL I linked to at the start of this thread explained the health reasons. Also, #decaf doesn't always have to taste bad.

     Friday, 27-May-11 18:00:40 UTC
   • Bradley M. Kuhn Coffee , Richard Fontana

     @fontana, you are indicating by that statement that there is a moral reason to oppose #decaf !coffee? What is the moral argument against it?

     Friday, 27-May-11 18:06:30 UTC
   • Fabian Scherschel Bradley M. Kuhn

     @bkuhn Yeah. The only people I'm more sceptical about than people who don't drink coffee are decaf drinkers....

     Friday, 27-May-11 18:06:32 UTC
   • Bradley M. Kuhn Coffee , Fabian Scherschel

     @fabsh, what qualifies someone as a #decaf !coffee drinker? Do I qualify because I have a few cups of *both* every day?

     Friday, 27-May-11 18:08:25 UTC
   • Fabian Scherschel Bradley M. Kuhn

     @bkuhn Nah. I'm only sceptical of people who *only* drink decaf. ;)

     Friday, 27-May-11 18:10:47 UTC
   • Fabian Scherschel Richard Fontana

     @fontana *Definitely* misguided.

     Friday, 27-May-11 18:14:58 UTC
   • Bradley M. Kuhn Coffee , Richard Fontana

     @fontana,if you don't think #decaf !coffee is immoral,then your comparison to proprietary software makes no sense whatsoever,at least w/ me.

     @fontana ha! so you're bi tea/coffee but rag on @bkuhn for drinking a range of coffees?

     Friday, 27-May-11 18:37:35 UTC
   • Bradley M. Kuhn Richard Fontana

     @fontana, I drink #tea a few times a month as well & w/ #caffeine. Of course entirely b/c of #STTNG & #Picard: Tea. Earl Grey. Hot.

     Friday, 27-May-11 20:16:15 UTC
   • MJ Ray Richard Fontana

     @fontana wow that's messed up. Really messed up. Drinking is about taste, not #caffeine
