>>Unfortunately (or fortunately), I gave up caffeine, and the choices for decaf beans are disappointing to say the least. The upshot is that I pretty much no longer drink coffee. I have to admit, I miss it some.

I don't drink any cola, but that's not much of a loss to me. I've never liked coke or pepsi. About the only pop I drink is ginger ale. As for tea, yes I drink tea, but there isn't much more caffeine in a cup of tea than there is in a hot chocolate. I know tea has caffeine, but it's so little. Pound for pound, tea has more caffeine than coffee, but by the time you work it down to a cup of tea, it's a lot less than in a cup of coffee.
The reason I miss coffee though, is not the caffeine; it's the taste and the blending of beans that I used to experiment with. With decaf, the range of beans is so limited that it's just no fun any more.
