anotheranonThe schism between coke, soda, and pop drinkers (uses Java applet).
See, see, I've been TRYING to tell my misguided non-Southern friends that it's coke, not soda, and sure as hell not pop (especially the way I usually hear it pronounced: "paaaaaaaaap").
Could be where I grew up (Atlanta, home of Coca-Cola Co.) or simply that my family has always been rather brand-loyal to Coke.
In any event, it's good to see that finally someone is addressing this burning issue.
