we have quite few Tim Horton's here in Maine and one thing I've  
noticed is that a Tim Horton's coffee in Canada is a size smaller  
than the "same size" Tim Horton's small coffee in the States. So a  
Canadian small is smaller than the US small, a Canadian medium = US  
small, Canadian large = US Medium

so if you take this post doc in Canada not only will you put up with  
a slave wage, but you'll have to make more trips to Tim Horton's for  
your caffeine fix
