Carty > AT&T Bell Laboratories > Piscataway, NJ I think the original writer deserves more credit than a 'blecch!!!' I am not a confirmed cola drinker(I like 7UP), but I occasionally dabble in the cola drinks. I happen to prefer diet sodas to regular sodas(I guess I might be a minority). I think Diet Dr. Pepper is pretty good, especially with some lemon or lime, like any cola needs. I guess I still look for that 7UP taste in colas. MY RECOMMENDATION: DRINK 7UP (DIET OR 'CLASSIC') 'NO CAFFEINE-NEVER HAD IT, NEVER WILL' \ / |\\ / | | \| | | |\ | | | \| John B. Lo Coco (...whuts!ogre) (...szuxn!ogre) 1-201-467-7436
