   Have you got a coffee machine? That is the new emperor,

   As for being unbalanced, this is funsec!


   P


   network enabled coffee machines anyone?



[Tomas L. Byrnes]
There's a protocol for that:

RFC 2324

http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2324.txt

Are you returning a 418 error code?  If you're unbalanced and all, you
might just be a teapot in a coffee world.  ;-)

(the astute will note that the resulting message is both short and
stout)

In the past, I've used various toolkits to change windows errors to
"Coffee Not found, Operator Halted". On the basis that you are what you
consume, I'm definitely a Coffee container of some sort.

I always thought that 419 should be the return code for "I'm not talking
to you because you're a criminal".
