Yep, it's true. Any carbonated soda is referred to as Coke down here. My family is all from the east coast so I hear pop and soda a lot but if you actually use those terms down here people look at you funny, like they have to think about it for a second before they realize you mean "Coke" which of course could actually be Sprite, Dr Pepper, root beer or who knows what else. <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
