I noticed in the Dallas area that Coke has started a big push for Cherry Coke with T.V. ads and the like. I still have not seen a classic coke ad around here. I tried Cherry Coke and thought that is was only mildly amusing, not that big a deal. Has the ads for Cherry Coke picked up elsewhere? Perry

I recently tried Cherry Coke (imported from Colorado), and called the GET-COKE number to see when/if it would make it to the Southern California area. I was told that Cherry Coke performed very well during test marketing, and the decision had already been made to market it nationwide. (It'll be out here towards the end of September.) Thus, I expect Cherry Coke ads will be appearing everywhere in the near future. -- roger long pertec computer corp {ucbvax!unisoft | scgvaxd | trwrb | felix}!pertec!bytebug
