Hello Bob,

>LL>And then there are caffeine pills.  A recent fad is students taking
>LL>lots of caffeine pills, which can be a dangerous thing.  You get a
>LL>bit of a high taking too much caffeine.  Well, sort of a high.  I
>LL>would not recommend anybody going that route.

BA>I wouldn't either.  It's possible to take a fatal dose of caffeine, for
BA>the average adult it's about 5 grams taken at once.  That's 25
BA>200 mg No-Doz pills.  According to the article I read it's not a
BA>particularly pleasant way to go.  And there's no antidote AFAIK.

You'd be literally bouncing off the walls after swallowing that many
No-Doz pills.  The only question would be whether you'd die from the
pills or from the injuries incurred from bouncing off the walls.

>LL>Best to stick with something safe.  Like coffee.  :)

BA>Or soda pop.

Nowadays energy drinks contain high amounts of caffeine.
Two (maybe three) six-packs should be enough to do you in.  :)
