[rawhide]

Sure gonna hurt a billion dollar company. Probably drop sales less than a percentage point. Now they can put their money into the football team

"The University of Michigan suspended sales of Coca-Cola products on its three campuses over allegations that the company permits human rights and environmental abuses abroad."

 

which should have read:

 

 

"The University of Michigan suspended sales of Coca-Cola products on its three campuses over allegations that the company will be making an official announcement after the first of the year that it will be changing the color scheme of it's cans.

The colors will be officially known as Scarlet and Cream."

 

GBR!

I heard it was more then just Michigan that was suspending sales, there are others I think. It aint gonna stop me from drink'n my coke! Still coke could throw them a bone and look into the allegations that they mistreated workers and overused resources in a few third world countries like India and Columbia. Could become a Nike like situation.
