As in kidney stones? I was unaware of coffee's relation to them.

The caffeine and some other chemical that I can't recall the name of right now (mem'ry) are prime-contributors that make some people more-susceptible.

I happen to fall in that some category.

All I drink anymore is Water, Icewater, Lime-Juice in Water, Lemon-Juice in Water (boosts the citrate levels in my urine), an occasional Beer or glass of Wine, and of course Water.

Could be worse, I might be doomed to drink only Water for the rest of my Life...........

(it's really not so bad - I was havin' a 'Stone every 4-6 months, and have been Stonefree now since Oct. '07)

Stone Free!
Do what I please!
Stone Free!
Gonna Ride the Breeze!
Stone Free!
Hear what I say....
Got-to got-to got-to get away......
