I just told elfgirl in IMs that I now have to smack you down.
I am a three-year Atlanta resident. Before that, I lived in Texas for the first 25 years of my life. (Born and raised in Dallas, college at Trinity U. in San Antonio, then two years in Houston.) Oh, and I also lived in London for a year, but that's not the point.
Carbonated beverages are "cokes". When you're feeling generic, you say "soft drink". "Soda" is the stuff you put in the icebox to keep it from getting smelly.
