Howard sighed. "Okay. Caffo is basically a patch that you stick on your skin, and it gives you a slow release of caffeine over a period of about eight hours. It’s very popular among tech workers who like their caffeine fix without the bother of having to break their flow to go to the bathroom to return used coffee. It also found a big market in the Jewish community for fast days. Not to mention the Muslims who buy it in industrial quantities during Ramadan.""That’s amazing!" said Ari. "I want a supply of these! How come I’ve never heard of them before?""Because they’re only going to be invented in about seven years’ time."
The fasting reference is a further sync. I was going to start the nicotine experiments several days ago but decided to postpone them because I was in the middle of a multi-day fast and didn't want to use nicotine on an empty stomach.
Given the established link between nicotine and Mars, it's a further sync that the passage quoted above comes from a book called Red Warrior's Gift.
