	I've been following this thread with some interest and want to 
	stick up for my home town, Great Falls, VA. We have a very nice 
	coffee purveyor, Gillette's by name, who roast on-site. They're
	in the same row of shops as Erol's (ugh), just down from
	the intersection of Rt 193 and Walker Road. Their prices compare
	favorably with other good D.C. area shops... stop by for your
	morning dose and try an almond pretzel!

	But I'd like to point out that one can also order from Zabar's
	in N.Y.C. via their 800 number, shipped UPS. Don't have the
	number handy; I'm sure 800 directory assistance does. I especially
	like their "special blend", ~$4.00/lb. Zabar's seems to be unable
	to stock anything but good fresh beans, given the volume they deal in.
	Is their "Blue Mountain" at ~$7.00/lb "true" blue mountain? I'm 
	not sure, but its SO SMOOTH....
