It is pretty interesting...Catron County for example, which is desolate to begin with at about 3500 pop., has 12 black residents all of whom have bachelor's degrees.

They feel safe making claims nobody lives long enough to refute.

242 oz?

Is that dry weight or actual prepared tea in a cup?

A box of tea weighs 2.37 oz and makes 40 cups. So 242 oz would be 4,084 cups of tea a year. Seems way too high, since 4,084 cups a year is 11 cups a day. So maybe it's prepared tea, which is about 6 ounces per cup. So 242 ounces divided by 6 is 40 cups a year. Or once every 9 days.

Which is more realistic? 11 cups a day or one cup every 9 days? I'd have to go with 11 cups a day, but that's just crazy. If you sleep 8 hours a day (unlikely consuming that much caffeine) you would be drinking 11 cups over 16 hours. Once every 90 minutes or so.

Making a cup of tea and drinking it is a mini-event. It takes time. You put the kettle on, wait for the water to heat, slowly sip the hot tea. It takes maybe 15 minutes for this mini-event. Or a sixth of your 90 minutes in
between each cup.

So in Turkey they spend one sixth of their life drinking tea.

I guess that's why they have these guys.

Amazon is like a mall, lot's of sellers besides Amazon itself, selling from the Amazon tent.
I got intrigued by the number of sellers selling the same product and how the price spread and gimmicks like free shipping played out.
I did this a couple months ago so prices may not be current, and don't ask why I picked Oxi-Clean, I don't know.
