Can't drive more than about 5.5 hours without stopping unless I rig up some sort of onroute gas refilling solution (I wonder if SAAB makes that for their airplanes and whether they would be willing to do it for their cars ;-). The reason for my post was to point out that, while driving for extended periods (more than 1 hour in my case), it's nice to have a sip or two of coffee to give you that boost. I don't think this puts me into the "fast track." I can't understand some of the things people do while driving either. It's just, IMHO, drinking coffee really doesn't rank as one of those "things." As for "they're a bunch of aging, more-excellent-than-thou, rude, traffic-laws- don't-apply-to me yuppies," who else would drive one of those things on the highway (flame retardent suit on ;-)? Kai.
