Lindsey Bolger and the pods.
Today's NYTimers business section has a good picture of former scooper Lindsey Bolger looking thoughtful for an article that discusses the environmental issues related to individual coffee pods. http://www.nytimes.com/2010/08/04/business/energy-environment/04coffee.html?_r=1&src=me&ref=business Lindsey is a bigfoot in the coffee business who left Central Square to attend Evergreen College in Olympia, Washington. While pursuing her independent coursework and building a boat she worked at the famous Batdorf & Bronson coffee roasters. We still follow Lindsey's directions for making iced coffee and we still use B&B's very famous Dancing Goats coffee blend. Lindsey has been active in all issues related to the production and sales of coffee from projects like Coffee Kids to improving McDonald's coffee, although only at New England stores. A few years ago she moved from the northwest to the northeast and took a job at Green Mountain Coffee in Vermont. This long article says almost nothing about the quality of preportioned coffee servings but understandably spends a great deal of time on the environmental consequences. Her photograph is handsome but doesn't immediately pop up online. http://www.nytimes.com/2010/08/04/business/energy-environment/04coffee.html?_r=1&src=me&ref=business
