Editorial: More Constructive, Nice, Constructive. . .

I'd like to return to the drip coffee discussion.  In the early to mid-1990s, good drip coffee was still a novelty.  Most people were still drinking canned commercial coffee, perhaps even brewed with a percolator.  I imagine that as the 1990s waned, more people were drinking coffee that was at least acceptable if not necessarily specialty (say, Eight O'Clock).  This is probably around the time Starbucks launched the Frappuccino.
