London Tea Tastes like ****
-
As I am not going to get my really important thing done tonight as I've spent too much time here, I made a quick cup of tea and realised how much better it tastes here (Leicestershire UK) than on my client's site in London. I use the same brand of tea (PG - the only tea worth drinking). The ones here are superb, perfect, a dream to drink. The ones I make on my clients site in London taste like cat's ****. And before you ask, yes, I have tasted cat's ****, and I imagine a lot of other people have as well, but won't admit to it. Like nobody seems to admit to dancing around their mum's bedroom as a teenager, in one of her bras, pretending to be her. I can't be the only one. Back to the tea - the water in London must be so rank and full of crap to make tea taste that bad.

It was to be sold in the UK. It was to be Coca Cola's new drink a few years back now - basically bottled water. However when the public discovered that it was bottled London tap-water Coca Cola had to withdraw the product from the shelves. Yes - they were actually using water London's public water supply. Their claim was that the water was 'purified' London tap water - the public and media were outraged by this. Needless to say that it was a marketing disaster for Coca Cola.

It is what I heard. This water is sold in a lot of countries. What about this? Is it just blabla or is it true? [^]
Dasani is still being sold in other countries. The Dasani website, on the "About Dasani" tab says: "To create Dasani, Coca Cola bottlers start with the local water supply, which is then filtered for purity using a state-of-the-art process called reverse osmosis. The purified water is then enhanced with a special bled of minerals for a pure, crisp, fresh taste." They had to come clean on where the water came from. The special blend of minerals are probably mainly salt and calcium. Marketing at it's most ridiculous!

Don't you have Red Rose tea ... oh ya, "Only in Canada, you say? Pity...."
...cmk The idea that I can be presented with a problem, set out to logically solve it with the tools at hand, and wind up with a program that could not be legally used because someone else followed the same logical steps some years ago and filed for a patent on it is horrifying. - John Carmack
