The coke is sweeter, much more so than here. That probably accounts for the better taste, too. As for the concentrate, you do not want to see that stuff up close. It'll scare the daylights out of you! And is toxic, deadly, undiluted. ;-) Kit - -----Original Message----- From: owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us [mailto:owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us]On Behalf Of Wesson, Leo W Sent: Tuesday, February 25, 2003 12:27 PM To: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us Subject: RE: [Leica] New Coke The best coke I ever had was in a India, that is until I heard the clink of ice in the glass. A terrifying sound...I had just been to a small village ice plant where they were making ice out of the water that the villagers were washing their cows with. Holy ice?

The best Coke was always, always, always in the small green glass bottles, and very, very, very cold. Especially on a hot summer day (95 degrees and 99 percent humidity) in Georgia. That is why the drink is so good! It was developed using focus groups (read: thirsty folks) from the Atlanta. Besides Southern Iced Sweet Tea (recipes will be forwarded to those who don't know how to make it right), there ain't nothin' that will quench your thirst any bettern' an iced cold Coca-Cola (pronounced "Co-Cola.")!
