They are heartless bastards and are trying to monopolize the coffee market. If they offered traditional, live, coffee house music it would bother me as much, but they don't. They are greedy, mean bastards ... not my kind of people.

There are tons of competitive coffees out there, though. Interestingly, Kansas has one of the best roasting companies in the whole wide world ... PT's. You can buy their roasts on line even. Not too expensive, either ... considering the quality.

PTs coffee is delicious. We buy the bourbon pecan. Good stuff.
