This stuff drives me nuts.  I am overweight, and switched to decaf to help
control my blood pressure.  Now I drink green tea at work, and damn the
caffiene; two or three cups a day.  I drink one cup of decaf coffee each
morning on the way to work.

And my BP has gone down (papers like this drive it up again, though).
