- Don't complain about lack of options. You've got to pick a few when you do multiple choice. Those are the breaks.
- Feel free to suggest poll ideas if you're feeling creative. I'd strongly suggest reading the past polls first.
- This whole thing is wildly inaccurate. Rounding errors, ballot stuffers, dynamic IPs, firewalls. If you're using these numbers to do anything important, you're insane.

Never again, never ever again.
That stuff just screws some people up. Some people can take it fine but I find it has serious impact on my personality, my eating habits and my tiredness levels.

The caffeine content is vastly lower, no sugar is required to reduce the bitterness, the calorie count is 0 and I find I can drink it all day long.
I now drink near a gallon a day (I have it quite weak) and feel so much better for it.
I also had fatty liver and since moving to jasmine tea my liver has significantly improved.
I do know some people have no problem and good for you but the impact on me is astounding. Especially if I have it after not having it for a long time. Last time I broke a drought and had 2 at a cafe over 2 hours with a friend they were basically in shock at my reaction to it. Couldn't stop talking or moving, incredibly energetic, much like I had amphetamines (which I have had before) - the feeling was almost identical.
No thanks.

Seriously: it astonishes me that people will take something like "I drink foo for breakfast, and now my workout routine is AWESOME" or "I used to drink bar but then when I quit my miscellaneous-probably-false health problem cleared up" etc. I mean, supposedly
If you're unclear, I'll give you a hint: odds are overwhelming you're experiencing a placebo. Even if you don't believe it's placebo because of [insert reason here], I'll give you another hint: it is.
Sad, really.
