Martyr,

I think you need some green tea too calm down a bit ... but don't drink too much. Oh, I get it, your a pragmatist - good point, we don't want King George to raise the taxes.


Dr Aum,

The Japanese had a saying "He is full of tea" to refer to the drunken like state that green tea produces.

The amino acid theanine is responsible for this state. Theanine is also in mushrooms (in great amounts) which might help explain the trance like truant teenagers. Or is that just strychnine.
