"What kinda coke y'all have?" "Orange"...
The 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.

Nah, it was the same way in Mississippi. Even my mother, from Long Island, learned that one. ;)
