I remember thinking "Hey, I could get into this..."               Junior year, I was traveling into San Francisco to a little coffee        shop that sold French and Viennese roast beans for $3.99 a pound, and        running a Braun Aromaster coffee pot for 3-4 pots a day in a group        house - and somehow it held up to the duty cycle of a small diner.               I was a computer science major, and some school resources were        constrained. I took an assembly language course that had 4 modem        ports and 4 terminals in a lab - for close to 100 students. I'd learn        to work all night, go to morning classes and crash for a couple of        hours at noon. Coffee fueled that.               Always black.               Fast forward to today, and my morning routine, as it's been since        1991, is having a cup of coffee before the house wakes up, and        reading a QWK packet.                            ...
