Not entirely true. I (and maybe several others?) am extremely sesitive to caffiene. A cup a day, over a week, has me addicted. I have to stay away from it a few days (and experience the headaches, etc.) to calm my nerves if I keep that pace for more than ten days or so. (Too bad I adore coffe -- O beloved, foul potion of haste self!!) I can imagine that colas could addict me, too, if I could stomach them long enough. -- --Bill Buie
