Subject: Caffeine persuasion


In a university study, participants were assigned to drink a beverage
that either had caffeine or didn't. Then they contemplated a hot topic
issue provided by the research team. Researchers found study
participants given caffeine were more likely to change their attitude
and agree with an opposing opinion. They say participants paid more
attention after drinking caffeine and therefore were more receptive to
information. Check out this video:

If you're looking for an attitude change I would suggest a nice Pinot
Noir from the Willamette Valley over any caffeine drink. I have also
found it helpful when trying to convince someone to agree with an
opposing opinion, particularly when they're much younger and more
attractive than me.
