It appears that our favorite soft drink manufacturer has stooped to a new low. The following is reprinted without permission from the the New York Daily News: **************************************************************************** The new Coke is sweeter than the "classic", but the Coca-Cola company went sour when it fired Amanda Blake, an employee at its bottling plant in Northampton, Mass., because her co-worker-fiance quit and signed up with arch rival Pepsi-Cola. She has filed a $600,000 lawsuit against Coke, and it's a good case. Coke and Pepsi *are* at war in the soda pop business, but it's all wrong to draw these kinds of battle lines. Love is still what makes the world go around. **************************************************************************** -- Name: John Ruschmeyer US Mail: Monmouth College, W.

Be serious?!! Are you sure that this isn't an NBC soap opera plot? Isn't Amanda Blake (and ***** Carrington) on some dreck like 'Days of Our Lives'? 'Twouldn't suprise me at all what depth network writers will dredge up scum. David Anthony DataSpan, Inc
