Now think about it!, it seems to me that if you liked the "old" Coke and don't like "new" Coke, then the last thing you're going to want to drink is Pepsi!! In other words, to any logical Coke drinker, the Pepsi commercials do the exact oppsite of what they set out to do, the convince Coke drinkers NOT to try Pepsi since it tastes just like the "new" Coke that they hate!!! Also, any logical Pepsi drinker might be convinced that they should try the "new" Coke, since they might like it even better that Pepsi. Come on Madison Avenue, where are your heads!!!!!
