Today (Sunday) I have gone to work, finished proof reading a paper and e mailed it to the first author for comments.
Been asked to Peer Review a paper (yahay!). Come home and attempted to do the data-extraction for a systematic review I am working one. Despite four coffee's the brain doesn't work so I may give up.

Heh -- you might be awake, but I think you'll have diminishing returns as far as concentration is concerned!

I don't trust Red Bull. One minute you're staying up until 3am to finish a paper, next you're in a capsule 19 miles up, trying to remember which is the air-hose and which is the 'comfort and convenience' hose in your space-suit.

Research science would not exist, as far as I recall, were it not for coffee. Most of my Uni professors/lecturers seemed to be constructed from the stuff... 
Less than a litre in the monring and I know I can't function at all 
Red bull?! though?! 
nasty stuff....

Ugh, the smell of Red Bull alone is so cloying...

I have never drunk Red Bull.
It is, however, my son's formula one team of choice. He is wrong, of course, but no-one is going to compete with a big red bull on the car .
