Boy, no kidding!!!   I tried the stuff (Cherry Coke, not RC) first at a
Fuddrucker's out in Montclair (So. Cal.) way back in June and it was pretty
good.  (I dunno how Fuddrucker's got it so soon...  I didn't see it ANYWHERE
else for months...  I hadn't even heard of it before I tried one.)

The stuff I got recently, however, doesn't taste nearly as good.  Tastes
kinda dusty...  like it sat in someone's pyramid for 4000 years... wierd...
Still better than that new coke crap when ya gotta have something outa the
machine...

ps.  How come we haven't got Classic out here yet?  Maybe Coke knew our
     discriminating So Cal taste buds would expose it for the hoax it really
     is, too soon for the market?   HFCS indeed!!!      :-)
