Actually, I searched on google now and found no information about any
connection between caffeine use and brain damage. In fact, I found
studies citing great reduction in brain damage of stroke victims who
used a combination of alcohol and caffeine:
http://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2003-04/aha-ec040703.php

"Those studies â??demonstrated that the combination of caffeine and
ethanol may reduce the amount of damage after stroke. Neither caffeine
or alcohol offered protection alone, but the combination was
protective,â?? says senior author James C. Grotta, M.D., professor of
neurology and director of the stroke program, University of
Texas-Houston Medical School, Houston, Texas."

Other than that, it is common knowledge that both caffeine and
nicotine are addictive substances, but, unlike nicotine, caffeine
produces no demonstrable ill effects.

To conclude, your claims have no factual or scientific basis, and, as
one might already be inclined to believe, you are merely spewing all
sorts of nonsense. 
Now, may we cease writing in English and revert to something commonly
spoken on the newsgroups where you usually crosspost, or do you think
English gives your preposterous claims more weight?
