You are not going to "die" from 1 cup of coffee a week. I drink about 2-3 cups a day and I feel fine. Coffee only has about 5 calories per cup and it boost metabolism, but don't drink too much too fast, you'll get a pretty bad caffeine crash later in the day.
So I'm about 4 hours in and the story seems to be going by way too fast. Did anyone else felt that? It feels like I have very little time to soak whats in the plot and there is a lot to soak in. Is it like that the whole game? Or is it just like that cause it's still early on in the game?
Affirmative action is done because blacks have had a historical disadvantage in this country. But honestly, I think that we should base affirmative action more on socioeconomic status rather than race. If you do it based on race you get a lot of fools who discredit any successful black person.

"If you do it based on race, you get a lot of fools who discredit any successful black person" I highly doubt that is very common in 2010. I subscribe to the simple theory that if your qualified for a job, then you get the job. Race or social status should never enter the equation.
Not common? You don't need to look further than what happened to the president.
Person A: Obama got into Harvard.
Person B: Probably just because of affirmative action.
And the place I generally believe in affirmative action is in stuff like higher education.
He got to Harvard cause the man worked hard. You're becoming the very fool whom you speak of that's discrediting a successful black man.
I do. In fact why isn't affirmative action considered racist? Blacks can't do anything without whitey bending the rules to make it easier for them? Where's the outrage there?

The argument is that the test might be curved in a way that it favors whites, if I'm not mistaken. This sort of thing isn't new.

No it wasn't. This is just a case of white guilt.
Of course it is, if you say so. :)
