i've never heard this before!
i was talking to some friends about chugging some of that skyrocket stuff from thinkgeek and he started talking about how i will die and all
100 MGS of caffeine per ounce.........would that be dangerouse to chug? if so.......what is a safe ammount to mix into something?

Well caffeine is very dangerous, but aspartame (in Diet sodas ) is even worse.. that's why diet pops are more unhealthy... I don't think it'd be 100 miligrams per ounce in that though.. maybe per can..

being the caffiene addict I am.... I think what you're referring to deftone is the caffiene withdrawls from not having your "fix" for a day or so and the headaches get VERY bad. Caffiene also affects your heart quite a bit and can cause murmers and that sort of thing. Water water water is really the only way to get off of caffiene.

Caffiene is almost as bad as cocaine.... anyway if you look around on the net im pretty sure you can find a study they did on spiders and how different drugs affect them... (you see there nervous system is almost identical to ours in the way it works) hmm let me see if I can find a link please hold... Ahhh it was NASA who did the study here is the link

the expirement about the spiders makes you wonder how bad caffine really is. Most of the time I just drink water, oj, and milk. Code Red and Coffee are consumed at LAN parties.

I don't usually notice myself as hyperactive after drinking caffeine and I've been drinking quite a bit of Pepsi lately. I do notice it sometimes though. That's a very interesting study M$, thanks. Caffeine is 2nd to last in terms of severity I'd say (this Chloral Hydrat found in sleeping pills being 1st).
Has anyone heard that Fritos has a chemical in them that makes you hyperactive? My dad always gets worked up about it and I'm wondering if it's true.

caffeine has very little effect on me as i have been taking it for long periods of time. The only things that really wake me up are energy drinks. But thats coz they have other things like taurine that causes you to hyperreact.

I dont see how fritos could react with caffiene.... I mean fritos are almost pure fried yellow corn ? I like Fritos but im not into caffiene (probably becouse I was told it would be good for me) I have some sort of off brain chemistry that they said the caffiene would offset LOL well I do just fine with out any sort of external help thank you very much

yeah i drink entirely too much coffee...we've already got 2 of the 50-cup sterns (i think that's what they're called...the big silver tubes like 36"x14") at the sculpture annex...brewing waffle house joe pretty much "all day, all long".

I dunno what the medication is for, but that was indeed way below the belt (though it's kinda funny

)
I don't get much caffeine myself either, coz coffee disgusts me. I don't understand how people can become addicted to it. I did drink one cup of coffee not so long ago, and that was because I was soooo tired. Well, I think that was the last time I did...

Energy drinks taste better than coffee in my opinion. I've had a sip once before as well and hated it. I very much like the way the beans smell but can't stand the liquid.

I don't notice caffeine having much of an affect on me I have to say. Either that's the case or my computer keeps me fully alert which I'm pretty sure is the case. When I'm on the computer... no feeling of fatigue whatsoever... when I'm not (late @ night), there most definitely is. My computer is my personal stimulant. I just bought some KoolAid Cherry which I've always liked and that, obviously, has no caffeine in it. I think it tastes better than Pepsi and when I think about it I get sick of many of the pop brands I try.
