I read iced coffee and then felt disgusted.

I do like a rich cuppa, but mostly I drink run-of-the-mill wussy coffee.

In the forces I spent a lot of time on stand-by in a crew room drinking some 10-12 large cups of coffee a day and wondering why I couldn't sleep!!!

I then switched to decaf and had the most wonderful nights sleep. Now I have one to three cups of full-fat coffee a day, the rest is decaf. On the rare days I do have the three - I can tell I've had them!

I do like iced coffee, too, but the UK isn't the most favourable climate for drinking it most of the time!

Got my nickname from coffee... more specifically, the lack thereof.

I've been a coffee drinker since I was maybe 18, in college. I needed to do something to counteract the alcohol abuse of my body the night before, and coffee was it. Then came the military, when college didn't work out so good. Out of the Army, I wandered the East Coast for about four years, working here and there - only constant was a smokin' hot cuppa.

When I finally quit tobacco, I also cut my coffee intake back by about half; occasionally I'll go the whole pot, but mostly down to about half a pot a day.

Well to each his own. Pretty hot here. Drinking anything hot wouldn't be so fun unless you are up in a high ground like mountain.

As for coffee I can always get to sleep even if before that I drink a glass of coffee. It seems to have no effect of putting me off from sleeping whatsoever.
