Coffee - the Yes Pill!

[sandykins]

This article left me highly amused. Titled Coffee makes us say Yes it has reportings on some latest research on cafeine from Australian researchers. Apparently caffeine makes us alert and focus on the task at hand thus making us more open to persuasive talk as cafeinated victims tend to listen more intently and eventually be persuaded!! :)

amigo, ghar po

I'm feeling so good that I didnt see your comment earlier because I indeed went home! \:D/

I mind this "insult" .. no encouragement of anykind from now on (emoticon for anger)

[sandykins]

aiyoo! You misconstrue me greatly!
My comment did not in anyway undermine your encouragement. It was independant of what you said. Just that fact that I had indeed gone home before I could see whatever comments you had left made me feel good that i had made the wise decsion to head home instead of linger in lab.. Artham aayinda?

Hehehe, this is the first reaction I get from some of my friends to whom I mentioned this article!!! LOL..

Well, what struck me as odd was the fact that if you became more alert and focussed on the problem at hand, then you would be more wary of falling prey to senseless commercials!! :)

Exactly.. But, Sandy, won't hear a word against the wonderful bean - it keeps me awake, and keeps Parkinsons at bay :-)

No no you "Drosophila-torturer"... this is not a word against the bean. In fact the arguments above in some way talk for the bean. I'm sure the bean wouldnt feel good if it made ppl more vulnerable to persuasion!!! :)

I drink coffee once in a blue moon. Guess I can never be persuaded by those silly ads.
