Actually, the guy I’d like to get tarred and feathered is whoever invented bottled water. What a scam. Especially since I am the sucker who has to carry the stuff home when my wife wants it from Costco. It’s gonna throw my back out one of these days.

And consider the impact on Global Warming - oops, I meant Climate Change.
This guy is liberal wimp.

I searched for pictures of K-cups, but I would get banned if I posted most of them.

Using reusable K-cups eliminates the chlorine from the filters in the pods. It makes for better cup of coffee.

He can cure that guilty conscience by donating every penny he made off of those planet killers to the old hippies down at Greenpeace and da Sierra Club. They’ll know what to do with it. LOL!

If you were a kid and said "Grandma, I'm going to put tap water in a bottle and sell it for more than gasoline!"
She would have smacked you in the back of the head and said "You're an idiot! Do you're homework or you'll end up in prison!"

Keurig is too pricey. French press more inexpensive.

Well, that seems to be the problem right there. He was happy to sell his idea to Keurig for $50,000, but they are now making BILLION$ off of these things and he doesn’t get a cut.
Suddenly he’s unhappy with his invention. Should have put that .01% clause in the contract.

They sell reusables everywhere, even saw ‘em at WalMart. In the meanwhile I hope Sylvan feels so very guilty he turns over all the $$$ he’s made from his guilt-inducing invention to some worthwhile cause, like the USO, or Wounded Warriors. What? You think not?
