I believe Coca >Cola distributes it themselves as some sort of good-will gesture. Yes, I was often given coke syrup as a kid when food wasn't staying down, and it was quite effective. Unfortunately, the side effect is that cola drinks now always make me feel a little queasy due to Pavlov-esque association. I wonder if the CocaCola company realized that risk! I also wonder if the new formula is equally effective. Hey, maybe they'll keep using the old formula for the syrup and then you old-formula lovers can mix your own! -- Mike Urban {ucbvax|decvax}!trwrb!trwspp!spp2!urban "You're in a maze of twisty UUCP connections, all alike"
