A curious, hypothetical question to put forwards to people here after reading something.

If someone you know commits crimes up to the point of murder, how far should the punishment go before they can consider it enough? Would it ever be enough?

Alternatively while I have this thing open; all the coffee tastes the same. Is there truly a difference between the different kinds the stores are offering?

[ Look, it's hard work being stuck in a bathtub as a mermaid sometimes, okay?]

I suppose you've got to respect the laws of wherever you are on the subject.

Personally, I think there's reasons for certain actions. We can talk philosophy and intent all day, but I don't think there's any definitive answer that's acceptable, even for myself.

Also, try a Robusta bean over an Arabica. You'll notice.

Of course.

And I agree with that; sometimes the need outweighs the result.

Coffee types?

It's an unfortunate reality, especially for those in a position to make the decision.
Would be nice if things were clean-cut and black or white, though.

Well there's blends/types of beans that are grown in specific soil.
But there are only two types of beans.
Almost all coffee is made with Arabica beans, regardless of how it's roasted or where it's grown.
Arabica has higher acidity, but Robusta usually has higher caffeine.
The taste is stronger, too.
