Not until the State of Jefferson is reality, then we'd be rid of leftist loonies near the coast :-)
Next thing the bureaucrats might do is force a danger warning on bottles of dihydrogen monoxide because it has killed numerous people.
My respect for bureaucrats, councils and all that is very close to zero.

Coincidence(?): The maid has just handed me my 9:00 pm coffee. No kidding. I have coffee or tea right after supper, another around
9 pm, then she goes to bed after leaving me another couple of cups in a thermos flask. My nightly routine for at least 20 years now.
No, no, no. If California is going to go, they have to take SF and LA with them. If it includes the entire state, OR, and WA, so be it.
I'm surprised it hasn't already happened.
...and Californians who put up with it.
Hydric acid? I thought it would be more properly be called hydrogen-hydroxide. Sounds really bad too.
When I was a lot younger, I could have a double expresso after dinner and sleep like a babe. But now, for some reason, coffee later in the day gives me jitters, and disturbs my sleep. Sleep is too important to mess with.
Sounds like you are a coffee addict. That's rational.

My cardiologist told me *no* caffeine, over ten years ago. I haven't (knowingly) had caffeinated coffee since.
It's a pretty popular addiction.
his colleague Paul Erd?s did coffee and amphetamines
but I guess that is also what they give kids with ADHD
The idea is to have a new state that does not include SF and LA.
When it comes to government overreach most folks here behave like sheep.

I can *guarantee* you the coffee houses of 17th C. Europe were not the places "where different classes met and exchanged ideas." You've been watching too much CNN bullshit.

No, no, no. The idea is to have another _country_ that does! (OR and WA, too)

Oh yeah, Wikipedia. Seriously I prefer to derive my picture of 17thC. coffee houses (and other matters of that day) from the rich descriptions and observations made by Pepys in his exceedingly voluminous diary.

Why not read the original, instead of various psuedonymous 'critics'' biased observations of same on the net? There's a shorter version available for busy people that runs to less than 1,200 pages. This is the one I have:
