Coke offers to send you a disinformation packet; the coupon seems to be
included.  Talk about doublespeak!  The booklet says Coke is [defined
to be] the most popular cola.  Since New Choke came out more popular
in tests, New Choke is [by definition] "Real Coke" and Old Coke is a
pretender.  Guess those Pepsi ads have a point....maybe they should
show the Coke market research department walking off a cliff.
