“How many caffeine-related fatalities and near-misses must there be before we regulate?” Jack E. James, professor at Reykjavik University in Iceland and National University in Ireland asked, in a recent article quoted by Raw Story.
Mr. James, who also serves as editor-in-chief of the Journal of Caffeine Research, is pushing for lawmakers and regulators to crack down on the stimulant. His call for regulation could gather steam.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has launched an investigation into the links between certain energy drinks and recent deaths, Raw Story reports.

We need caffeine control, lets get a bill passed in the MD senate limiting coffee possession, and no more than 2.5 cups per citizen per day. The coffee is to be kept in a locked safe if children are in the house and no concelled coffee permits will be issued. Only state officials will be exempt. You must get permission from the state to buy or sell any quantity over 10 cups. If the coffee is lost or stolen you must report it to the state. We got to stop the tea party extremists that don't care about the death of our children by caffeine. Zeig Heil!
I wonder if Iceland has made pot legal? My guess would be yes. That would make them very similiar to the state of MD in ultimate hypocrisy.
Thank You, 3:37! A dropped jaw CAN be healed!
Hands off my coffee, hands off my gun.
