Today's issue of the "Daily Texan" (U of Texas newspaper) quotes Dale
Bunn, marketing director for the Coca-Cola and Dr. Pepper Bottling
Co. in Austin, as saying the 'old Coke' that will be distributed
is the same coke that left the market in June, but is not the original
coke.  Bunn says, "We have been using high fructose corn syrup blend
instead of sugar since November 1984."
