Hey, the mistake has happened apparently randomly to me and others, and
I've never asked for soy milk. Thought I'd mention the availability for
those who would like the option. I've witnessed unpleasant reactions from
people who got soy lattes by accident, and not knowing, thought the milk
had spoiled. 

I go there mostly because they have great hummus and nice desserts, it's  
nie place, even if it's too smal IMO for an internetworkers' gathering.
Oh, and Scott? Please tell Jack T that I said hello :).
