I dont think you do (divide, that is). you will find them both in the same place. for example, anywhere where there is PIB there is usually the Dr. San Diego has no PIB but certain fast food places in the Bay Area do.. San Antonio yes, North Austin no, South Austin yes. its sort of like a safeway (or insert your local grocery store here) brand.

Well, you've got to admit that it would certainly cut defense expendatures...

Re: OT - Mindless Rant
Army of one... You know what that means, They are just going to have one dude with a nuke strapped into his radio, air drop him behind enemy lines, and when he radios for help, BOOM!
One army of 5000 gone at one man's stupidity.
If the army wanted a new slogan, they should go to war movies and epic films like Patton, Gladiator, Star Trek II, Pirates of Silicon Valley, and such.
What we need here in america is a good, fun, head bashing. We got some enemies left over that the cold war didn't kill. Let's get one of them.

Hey, there's nothing like a war effort to revive a sluggish economy. That and it would give the TV networks something to talk about besides Jenna Bush. (Jeez, leave the girl alone! What college kid doesn't take a drink before reaching twenty-one? Granted, most don't try to order a margarita using a fake ID with the Secret Service just a few feet away....)
I want to know what happened to Jolt! Twice the sugar and four times the caffeine as Mountain Dew, or something ungodly like that. Man, it makes my heart race just thinking about it....

Re: OT - Mindless Rant
In South Africa, you have “Cool drinks”, which covers everything in the soda pop range and here in Kenya, we have “Softa” or “Soda”. In Canada as kid we had “soft drinks”. But you shouldn’t be drinking that stuff, it gives you acne. Well, that is what Mom told me...

It's here:
http://www.wetplanet.com/main.html
Poking around there a bit, I found a page that mentions it has 54% more caffeine than Mountain Dew. ISTR reading somewhere that it had the legal limit for caffeine content to still be categorized as a "soft drink".

Cap'n Q
The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the
human mind to correlate all of its contents. We live on a placid
island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was
not meant that we should go far. -- HP Lovecraft, "The Call of Cthulhu"

Re: OT - Mindless Rant
I think if it's any higher than 54% it becomes either Instant Death or Instant Diabetes....
