more coffee related stuff

i feel for you john. your post reminded me of an interesting point: if you get to coffee at about 11am, just before the 1103 rush, then you'll get a mug of coffee/tea. when all the mugs are gone, then you get a cup and saucer. these recepticles are supposedly the same volume, and indeed i could believe that (they're the same price at any rate). however, if you ask for a small tea/coffee, i think you still get a cup+saucer. how does that work?
