Hi All,
I used to able to come in sit down, have a ![Java | [Coffee]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/coffee.gif) and read my emails. This has stopped since I started on operation 'No Time, No Chance' where the deadlines were decided without reference to anything factual. This is not a fun project, we have to follow a set of standards that are so heavily worded that it is impossible to make sense of them. Hardware take it one way, Software the other (zero offsets) I'm in the middle trying to make sense of it while getting toxic Jira syndrome! Happy Days?

There is something called human rights, and according to the Geneva convention, you've got the right to drink hot coffee!

Quote: We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Hot Coffee.
Note that it's the pursuit of hot coffee, not the attainment!

According to the Geneva convention collective punishment is a war crime.
However, when it's called "work" or "overtime" everything's fine.
Seems like the are some loopholes in the convention

I'm not a coffee drinker (tea here) but my wife likes coffee, and I've always noticed that coffee gets cold a lot quicker than tea. I've never understood why that is.

I've noticed the reverse: my wife is sat there with a cup of cold tea, while my coffee was still hot when I finished it.
(And that's using the same two-layers-of-stainless-steel-with-a-vacuum-between-them mugs).

It might depend on the amount of milk in each. If you put more milk in your coffee than your wife does in her tea, the coffee may start out slightly cooler, but it will lose heat less quickly.
(All things being equal, darker "stuff" loses heat more quickly than lighter "stuff".)

I put milk and sugar in my morning coffee* and just a little sugar in the "real stuff" to smooth the bitterness and let me taste the undernotes.
* That's not the expensive type, it's ground coffee but it's strong wake up juice for my brain. Taste doesn't come into it so much: this is caffeine in a cup ...

If you drink tea with milk, and your wife drinks her coffee black, then the black coffee may cool down more quickly (all other things being equal, black "stuff" heats up/cools down faster than lighter-coloured "stuff").

If you think it's that easy, answer it!
Then you can set one tomorrow!

I'm no good at setting these up.
Going into research mode. Hopefully, tomorrow won't be as easy.

You can never tell - some I thought would be gone in five minutes didn't get solved at all, and some I figured were a real challenge were answered immediately.
We have a lot of different brains here, and they all think differently...
