I see no reason why I shouldn't follow suit on the rest of these. I will enjoy doing it, and maybe some of the other researchers will be entertained by my efforts. Everyone wins.

Thanks. I'm trying to cope with coffee without cream; just apple juice to sweeten it. Not terrible, but not nearly good as milk or cream.
