I would have stood there looking at you thinking "I know this guy, but who is he?"

I know it's been asked before, but why did he have to specify he wanted his tea hot, but not how much tea he wanted?

Soooo.... I'm sitting here listening to Xavier Cugat's version of "Brazil" while eating Chex Mix.

There's something wrong with this picture, but I can't put my finger on it.

By the 24th century, Starbucks is but a distant memory, and with it the concept of different size servings of tea or coffee. You want tea, you get a standard sized cup of tea. No options.

However, iced tea does still exist, thus the need to specify "hot".

The bigger question is, why didn't the designers of the replicators implement some sort of user preference or macro function. We know they have voice recognition technology, it should be pretty simple to have "tea" spoken by Picard default to a hot cup of earl gray.

Because the same system is used universally. And he'd be sitting on the can and only get through the first syllable of "TP please" before getting a hot Early Gray colonic.

Little know fact: common side effects of earl gray colonics include strange baldness patterns and an insufferable tendency to quote Shakespeare.

I remember seeing something about that on Oprah.
