Strangely enough, while in a local `SUPER' (i.e. big) Market, while
in the Coke isle, I noticed that there was *no* New Coke, only
classic.  I'm told that this is due to the fact the new coke
was a failure in the boston area, and it's quietly being phased
out.

This brings up a point that an unstable friend brought up, while
staring at my can of Classic Coke, and my New coke (bought as an
accident from a machine which payed for it's mistake.).  He
looked at the new coke, and in a daze rambled on about how this
was now the standard Coca-Cola, that the real coke was now gone.

If new coke is not sold in the boston area, then ``Coca-Cola'',
that is, the product sold under that name, the same name under
which a most successful product has been sold for a long time,
longer than I would remember, would not be availible.  Strange
thought.

By the way, I just heard on the radio that some judge in Atlanta,
ordered Coke to give out their formula.  This confuses me.
I've read all sorts of thing about Coke and their formula, like
India once said that unless they got the formula, Coke would not
be able to sell Coke in India, so they left.  And all the methods
by which Coke protects the formula which is in a safe somewhere,
with one person who knows it, and one person who knows the combination.
Just stuff like that, anybody heard anything about this?
