Well, that makes sense. I mean, caffeine is caffeine, isn't it? As you say, there must be some other factors involved, maybe tea has something to temper the jitteriness, or whatever. I think a cup of tea also has less caffeine than a cup of coffee--but I don't think that's what the person I was talking to meant, as we were drinking tea by the bucket while she was wired on some 2 cups coffee. I mean, I don't think that's the whole story here about this new aspect to the "tea mystery".


> Perhaps the action of caffine is the same in tea and coffee, but there are other substances involved - perhaps tea has other things in it to counteract the caffine or to promote more relaxation, or perhaps theres something else in coffee which is responsible for the 'jitters'. Is it theobromide or something...anyway.....
