Big Coffee and Big Hair

Interesting little tidbit heard in an editorial on NPR's Marketplace program this evening:

If a "venti" cup of Starbucks coffee were filled with gasoline, it could run a Vespa for a week--or a Hummer for an hour.

This fact rocked my world about as much as I thought it'd be rocked on this most mundane of Mondays. But then I went to the Marketplace Web site and saw the photo of David Brown, the guy who hosts the show.

Do we have any other Marketplace listeners out there? (She says, adjusting the tape on her glasses.) Did anyone, anyone imagine that this is what that guy looks like?
