Coffee Break
Physics Central asks: "How long would you have to yell to heat a cup of coffee?"
Answer: Zero minutes, of course. One should never heat a cup of coffee. Once the coffee is brewed, it should be enjoyed at the temperature at which it was brewed on a declining scale as it cools and new flavors are made available to the palate.
