That was back in the late 1800's and early 1900's. In the mid 1930's they established the Food & Drug Administration which began to regulate the Pharmaceutical Industry. Shoot back in the 1890's you could buy Laudenum over the counter. Laudenum is tincture of Opium. However, They soon started soaking the Coca leaves in running water to dissolve and remove the cocaine. Short history lesson. thorlo6

Most of the COKE and PEPSI locations have our phone systems, so get to visit them from time to time and it's amazing how big the soda pop industry is. They act like it's a major emergency like the white house or something when their phones go down. It's hard for me to get into the swing of the seriousness that they place on it, but of course I do realize that they are a business just like any other and phones down can mean lost revenue so I do my best to get things back to normal for them as with any other customer. Country clubs are my other one that I have a hard time realizing the seriousness of down phones at..
