Hi
Rick,
Navy coffee I can drink with no problem.  Gary & I are both former airdales.
Lane Transit District coffee is a different subject entirely, however.
First, I always thought that coffee should begin life as a liquid.  Second,
the pot should be cleaned at least once every 10 years or so.  Third, the
diesel belongs in the buses (or my 5 acres of blackberries), not in the
coffee.
