Dear P Giglio, 

Sorry for the delay in editing your PGG article submission. The 
current editors are all really busy so I have come out of retirement
to help them out. 

I am concerned over the accuracy of this article. Yeah - sure Cappucino
is popular in Seattle, but do they really have a different way of 
making Cappucino to the rest of the world? When I buy coffees from  
Seattle Coffee Company it is made with two or more shots of espresso coffee, 
and frothed milk. I add the chocolate to taste, sprinkled on the top. 
Espresso coffee is made by pushing steam through ground coffee - and not 
water cooler than for normal coffee.

Your ingredients are a bit strange too. Where does powdered milk
come into this? Why not use real milk?

Could you look at rewriting your article. If you can rewrite it then
I will look at it again. If you think that it should go in as it is 
then I suggest posting it to the news group asking for people's help
in improving it. I am sure a large number of people can offer their
cappucino drinking stories.

Cappuccino; even though it's Italian, it is Seattle's signature drink (if
there is such a thing), a good friend and consequently, an escape from the
daily problems. Capuccino's basic formula is:

- 4 parts of powdered milk;
- 1 part of coffee;
- 1 part of powdered chocolate;
- 2 parts of sugar (more may be added later; better a bit less than too
many)

Just add hot water (not as hot as usually it's used for coffee).

Instead of mixing the listed ingredients up, you can buy it on your local
supermarket, or go to a cafe after work with your friends and order a good
one made with espresso (it's quite stronger caffeine, you can ask for a
single -- up to triple -- dose of espresso; and sleep is a faraway dream...

          [1]). And it is a quite good excuse for a hot drink if you don't
               really like coffee at all.

Now that's the easy part of it. The cons of drinking cappuccino is drinking
it like water (which it still is, only with the ingredients said above,
even though some people say it is a gift from Heaven), writing songs about
it, offering it to one and every people visiting your house (even if you
already know they don't like it) and start getting to that "caffeine
conclusion" : "sleep is quite irrelevant".

[1] Editor's Note:  read it as "a faraway DAYdream" if you're already a
    cappuccino fan.
