Lines: 11 How about "phosphates"? Anyone heard of these beasts? Well, in northeastern Ohio, they are a hand mixed version of Orange Soda, or Strawberry Soda, etc. The person behind the counter just puts the syrup in a glass, and then adds the soda water, and voila! I don't know how far they go, but we never heard of them in southwestern Ohio...the first I heard of them was at Ohio University (in Athens, southeastern Ohio, but is inundated by northeasterners, do you get the impression that Ohio is full of corners?) cheers! -- Ken Shoemaker, Intel, Santa Clara, Ca. {pur-ee,hplabs,ucbvax!amd70,ogcvax!omsvax}!intelca!kds
