I"m glad I don't drink 3 cups a day. That's an awful lot of coffee, in my opinion.

Statistical significance doesn't mean that you need to change your coffee-drinking habits. The risk might be one in a thousand.

Eureka! This explains all the white canes I see at starbucks. Of course, I see them through a yellow haze.

Uh, Sethbag, Joseph Smith didn't warn us against caffeine. He warned us against "hot drinks." I think this is better evidence that Joseph Smith was correct.

Why can't Mormon God be more clear, and just warn against "too hot of drinks", or even more specific, "don't get coffee at McDonald's"?

So,
you'll live longer, but for those last years of your life you'll be blind. Anyway, gotta go, need to finish feeding rye to my chickens.

Exactly. I hate statistics. I can show you a mouse with a head and a mouse with no head and some statistics-slave will ask me for a P-value.
