I'll take Tea please

America wakes up to the Coffee Party | Joseph Huff-Hannon | guardian.co.uk

A group of liberal-leaning New Yorkers meeting at a place called Le Monde Café to discuss the politics of the day.....group adherence to a "civility pledge" (" … I value people from different cultures, I value people with different ideas, and I value and cherish the democratic process"), the inaugural National Coffee Party Day was called to order. Wayne Jacques, one of the facilitators of the meeting, told me. "We wanted to make sure this thing doesn't dissolve in to a shouting match. .. frustration that the shrill voices of a newly energised grassroots right (ie the so-called Tea Party) are getting all the attention.

Anyone called Wayne who is a "Facilitator" isn't some one I'm going to enjoy a drink with.
