They didn't do that to the cap, thank goodness. As far as fair trade coffee, the cafe of choice here in Seattle is Cafe Ladro (there are several of them in different neighborhoods) which serves ONLY fair trade, organic, shade grown coffee. Many roasters here offer the option of purchasing fair trade products among their selections.<BR/><BR/>Manu, thanks much for the encouraging words, but I'm still muddling along with just my kit lens. L-series soon to come, though (Santa did bring a lens at Christmas, but I took it back to Glasers knowing I had my eye on the 70-200 L with wiggle stop feature. I'm still debating if it's too heavy a lens for me to manage properly. I'm hoping to test one soon to get a real feel so I don't invest in something and then regret it. Hope being in Santa Clara was for something fun or interesting.

I went to the homepage that you linked to: that photo makes the coffee look totally unreal, like it's made out of plastic, don't you think? Of course the most important question is whether they use Fair Trade coffee (I noticed the ad on your site). :-)<BR/><BR/>z basedinvilligen.blogspot.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23860865.post-55753533356083748632007-02-12T01:10:00.000-08:002007-02-12T01:10:00.000-08:00John, thanks much.
