Here in the mountains of North Carolina there are still old-timers who call all those drinks "dope" or "sodey dope". As in, "I had a dope and a Moon Pie".

In KY you can hear soda, pop, coke and some of the others depending on where you are. That’s what happens when you are land locked by 7 US states and you sit smack dab between the Midwest, South, and Appalachia.

In Mayberry, it was always a bottle of pop (and filling stations).

I'm from Upstate NY and we called them "soda", however every summer I went to Canada for hockey camp...Canadians called them "pop".

I was raised all across the southern and western US. One day I'll call them pop and the next soda, coke, Pepsi, RC, soda, and about everything else.
But one thing that I despise is to ask for a Coke and getting a Pepsi without them telling me.
Now if I just ask for a cola I'll take any of the cola drinks

Jerome, do you think my last post in rough camping must maybe shift as an article?

Good afternoon,
I'm trying to get in contact with Mr Butch Searcy. I have the opportunity to buy one of his rifles chambered in 577 nitro Express however the seller does not have any of the paperwork with the information about what ammunition or bullet weight was used to regulate it. I know he is not making firearms anymore but I wanted to reach out after seeing one of your post about him.

Hi - the only (best) method of sending you the .375/06IMP data is with photographing my book notes. My camera died so the only way I can do it is with my phone. To do that, I would need your e-mail address, as this
new Android phone is too complicated to upload to my desk computer, which would be easier and to down-grade, reduce the file sizes.
Best wishes
Daryl
