Oh, up early?? Janice will probably be up soon, also. One of the reasons I really like SI is that there is almost always someone up here from someplace on the planet who is willing to keep you company when you can't sleep, or whatever.

Green tea has caffeine, definitely. I don't believe it has quite as much as black tea, however. Green tea does not taste good with sugar and milk, and black tea does, so I like black the best. Culturally, most Westerners grow up used to black tea, and sometimes it is hard to make the switch. I think they have already started making supplement capsules with the protective elements of tea, so you can take those instead of drinking the tea if you don't enjoy the taste.

Clinton selling missle technology to the Chinese for cash is not very sexy, Duncan. Unfortunately, it will be hard to hold the public's attention for something so dry. Sort of like the scandals involving the Riady family of Indonesia. There are perhaps impeachable offenses, but Clinton is very clever, and they will be hard to trace, even if we are all able to stay interested long enough to complete an investigation.

My cursory read of all the newsmagazines this week suggests that there are charges regarding the sex scandals--perjury and obstruction of justice--but nothing really chargeable on the other, more serious scandals. I am not sure the Congress will have the resolve to take these very seriously, since the public does not. Who is Stuart Taylor?
