Starbuck has a drink called Caf¨¦ Americano. The description under it says, ¡° Espresso and Hot Water.¡± No kidding! Such an insipid drink is named after us. It makes it sound like we have no imagination when it comes to enjoying life. That¡¯s not true. We are busy working people. We don¡¯t have the time to sit around in caf¨¦s like the French, especially in caf¨¦s with a name as Caf¨¦ Philosophi. It takes time for things to develop, coffee or thoughts, for now I am only glad that my Caf¨¦ Americano , espresso and hot water that is, does not spill on my lap while I am driving.

Is Cafe Philosophi same thing as the Socrates Cafe? I've never been to one, but I like their concepts: common people gathering together discussing philosophies related to current issues.
