From time to time someone says to me something like "well, tea has as much caffeine as coffee, you know!" My memory is not great but I usually remember that I went and looked it up before and that this wasn't quite true but I can't quite remember the numbers. So, here it is, Dave's memory-in-a-webpage!
Please note: I rooted around all over the place and collected numbers from several sites so the numbers are the best I can get without actually measuring myself. But the value for "the amount of caffeine in X" can vary by a factor of 8 depending on a lot of factors. So PLEASE don't tell me these are wrong unelss you have taken this variability into account.
