Now I find the very idea of going to a coffee shop funny. And I'm from just south of Seattle. Yes, I drink coffee-but I make it myself for about $.75/16oz. vs. whatever they charge now-$5.75? I control the quality, no matter where I am. (I'm told that Starbucks makes very good coffee, but I suspect it does vary. I know that the quality of McDonalds' food varies despite their best efforts to assure uniformity. And it's harder to maintain a uniformly high standard than to maintain the 'adequate' standard that it seems like McDonalds sets.)
