-> A little strong I believe.
-> However, he IS correct.
-> I have talked to MANY, people who think the new coke DOES
-> taste like Pepsi.  And these people drink enough to know...

These are PRECISELY the people who know the LEAST.  The last
person whose opinion I'd trust on the taste of Pepsi (or whether
something ELSE tastes like Pepsi) is a die-hard (Old) Coke drinker!

For those of you who drink Coke, HOW DO YOU DEFINE "TASTES LIKE
PEPSI"?  HOW DO YOU *KNOW*, IF YOU DON'T DRINK IT?  Have any of
you actually tasted the two (Pepsi and new Coke) side-by-side,
blindly?  And you REALLY don't detect a difference?  Get your
taste bud differentiation circuits checked!  New and Old Coke MAY
be as far apart as Old Coke and Pepsi, but that doesn't mean
Pepsi=New Coke!

And as for those who say "virtually no one on the net likes
the New Coke, because of the overwhelming number of anti- 
articles", think about this:

Why would anyone who LIKES the New Coke BOTHER to write to complain?
