Default "Humans 'very likely' making earth warmer" is wrong

the discrepancy between predicted maximum heart rate and observed can be due
to caffeine,
a cup of coffee before exercise can raise your heart rate 10-20 beats above
your "ceiling" but it's the rate without any caffeine in your system what
the formula predicts
there are other stimulants (tea, coke, etc) that contain significant amounts
of caffeine
