       Having been served the 'new' Coke in a resturant, I must say that I
am rather upset at their greed and the fact that they bowed to market 
pressure. The swill tastes like Pepsi. If I want something that tastes
like Pepsi, I will buy Pepsi. And I hope that all the Coke drinkers do the
same. Perhaps they were not making the maximum profit that their Yuppie
marketing types thought that they could fleece out of the sheepish 
consumers but I perdict that their plans will backfire and more people
will choose Pepsi. I have. When a large conglomerate starts to get too
greedy it is time for the people to boycott and/or change to another
product as a protest against the greedy captialist swine.

         No Coke man, Pepsi . . . . .
