I regret to inform you all that this is a false alarm. Were the apocalypse to
be heralded by soft drinks, it would've arrived upwards of two and a half years
ago, with the test marketing (in various remote parts of Maine, one of which I
hail from) of Caffeine Free Diet Jolt. Please relax, get out of your bomb
shelters, loosen your sphincters, take a deep breath or two. We are _not_
doomed.
Although I must admit, the doom of creation being prophesied by an object
borne by Charles Schletzbaum _does_ have a rather convincing ring to it.
