	Just tried my first can of Coca-Cola Classic and I think it tastes
great. I had gotten used to New Coke, but I did not go out of my way to drink
it. I am glad to say, that at least for me, COKE IS BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I went to a supermarket in LA last night, and I saw a sign saying
"Classic Coke."  Now, the New Coke was selling for $1.79 for
a six pack of 12 oz. cans, and what they were calling "Classic Coke",
which looked to me like old Coke that they were storing, was selling
for $2.79 for a six pack of 8 oz. cans!!  I assume the store was
storing the cans of old Coke-  has this happened anywhere else?
How much are they charging for the new old stuff?

According to the Coca-Cola bottling company offices in Santa Ana (which
I am assuming is the same company as the one in LA) Coca-Cola Classic
won't be in this area until September 13.

  Our local Target store (a K-mart type store, for those in areas where Target
ain't) sells Classic Coke for $1.69 a six-pack (cans).
