Thanks.

... but wait.. '*at* *all*'? Just those that are being served. 

I don't know how guests would feel if you made them a drink, stuck a straw in 
it, and tasted it, if they didn't already KNOW you as the tender. Add to that, 
if I'm waiting on my drink, and you're taking the time after you've made one 
to taste it while I'm waiting for mine.....

I don't think it's necessary. Is it cause for your fingernails to be ripped 
off? I'm not there either.

But actually, my LQQKS were more for the idea of saying that you gotta taste 
every drink.
 
> I... I'll refrain from further comment. See the thread yourself.

That's probably best. Heck, we can go back to that thread and re-hash alla 
this. (I'm ready for ya)
