    Quick, how many empty soda cans and/or bottles do you have on your desk? What am I still doing up at 4am? Brad Jennings BTW, my count is 6 cans, 1 bottle, and one can I'm working on.

      There is this allegation that India-made soft drinks [Pepsi and Coke] contain concentrations of pesticides up to 40 times E U standards. So there are not many coke cans in anyone's tables nowadays :) Smitha You are never given a wish without also being given the power to make it true.

          Thumsup is doing fine AFAIK. It's Pepsi and Coke that are the culprits. ;) Or maybe someone wants to get bribed. X|

              Yes, they do now, but originally Thumsup was an Indian brand, made by an Indian company. When Coke and Pepsi entered the Indian market in the 1990's, Coke bought out the biggest (only?) cola. Other brands, like Limca (it's a sort of lemonade) and others that I forget now, were similarly bought out. The good ones, like Thumsup and Limca were allowed to continue while the rest died out. The allegation is not against Coca-Cola the company and PepsiCo the company, but the factories in India where they are made. It's alleged that they don't adhere to the norms.

                None :) Looks like I'm one of the neater geeks, maybe the fact that I have a trash can helps ;P Paul ;)

                  Not one, though my collection of empty beer cans is impressive.

                    None. If you had asked this an hour ago the answer would still have been none. But 6 hours ago? That's another question entirely :) (I hope wine glasses half full of cheap Californian Cabernet Sauvignon don't count) :) Rob Manderson http://www.mindprobes.net

                      None. I have taken to dumping them in the kitchen now, that way they get thrown out for recycling before the mould spreads to nearby objects.

                        At work? 4 coke cans, 2 pepsi, 1 sprite. At home? hmm...approximately 57 coke cans, 4 snapple bottles, and something I've been using for an ashtray :)
