I’ve never been stupid enough to give $6.00 for a cup of coffee; if I were a regular, I would stop. That being said Starbucks has every right to make the rules concerning their business.

Go to the Daily Mail website & read what those stinking Brits think of us Yanks & our guns. Might google the term `wanker’ first, it’s their favorite insult.

UK is a lost nation. The muzzies have already found it.

“After the celebrated Liebeck v McDonald’s case in 1994, involving a woman who suffered third-degree burns to her thighs, Starbucks complies with the Specialty Coffee Association of America’s recommendation that drinks should be served at a maximum temperature of 82C. “

Since I had to listen about the case last month, here is proof of how stupid this writer is:

In the case he mentions, McDonald’s was sued for coffee that was kept at 185 deg F. 82C = 180 deg F. As admitted in court, the temperature would have to drop to around 140 to be ‘safe’. And the US national standards for home coffee makers says they should brew the coffee to between 170 and 205 deg - an average temp of 187.5. But Starbucks is liberal, so dropping the temp from 185 to 180 impresses this idiot, even while his coffee pot at home probably brews a hotter cup of coffee.

Yes, the writer is fact-challenged on guns. But he is also a total idiot about coffee & the law...
