Bill, as you may know (but probably not remember), I'm 93, going on 94 (in less than two months!). When I worked as a computer engineer for 38 years, I drank up to -- most weekdays -- 16 cups of coffee a day. I had free coffee all day, a cup warmer, and a cup never empty on my desk. I was a chain drinker, sipping on average every 1 to 2 minutes or less. Is that why I'm still alive (and kicking)? I have many other healthy habits as well, so I'm not sure. But according to the science you reported, it may have contributed. I gave coffee up about 35 years ago for decaf because I had become addicted. Severe headache if I didn't have a cup in my hand. Now I'm happily back on one cup a day and cautiously loving it. All that may have something to do with my good looks too (except that my great-grandchildren look at me from afar, not wanting to get too close). In any case, I'm happy as a pig in a mud hole.
I remember David! In fact, I had you in the back of my mind when I read Ramona's article and asked her to run it today. Feel free to chime in. Happy almost birthday!
