  Hmmm - not a bad idea, but it'll be one hell of a saucer.  Perhaps some
people don't have a desk that big. :)

  I typically drink ~1 gallon of milk per day (not chocolate though).
Perhaps a GNUS Millnium Udder is in order?

  I no longer drink caffeinated drinks (I had to quit cold turkey when I
realized I was drinking over a 12-pack a day[1]), and never have drunk tea
or coffee (vile stuff).
