Computer Eng., Cleveland, OH Lines: 16 I just read in the paper (Cleveland Plain Dealer) this morning that old coke is returning, under the name Coca-Cola Classic. Both old and new coke will be marketed. Coca-Cola's stock rose $23.7 a share and PepsiCo's fell $.75 after the announcement. Apparently, all those calls to the 800 number complaining about the new Coke actually paid off. They said they received 1500 calls about the new formula a day, and many of them were complaints that the old Coke should return. Later today, in Atlanta, representatives of the Coca-Cola Co. will give more details about its plans. -- John Diamant Usenet: ...decvax!cwruecmp!diamant Case Western Reserve University CSNet: diamant@Case Cleveland, Ohio ARPA: diamant%Case@CSNet-Relay
