DD is right up there (NY), but I actually like the "Green Mountain" at the
gas stations a little better.

As far as Starbucks - ecch. Gives me heartburn - every time. And I drink 6-8
cups of coffee a day. The rugrats behind the counter oughta stop smokin'
that rope too - LOL

Best coffee I ever had was Kona, in Hawaii about 25 years ago. They served
rice as a starch with breakfast there too, in lieu of (expensive imported)
potatoes. Interesting. Wonder if they still do...
