        smoggy and gray, but that's not important right now. - loosilu May 30, 08:36 1
        
        Why would you wear a smoggy gray gstring? -- nm - Redmond, Gemma fan! May 30, 08:37

    - I got the numbers for a local channel so they may have forgotten a zero -- nm - Remlik May 30, 08:10
    - 14000lbs = 14k x 16oz...no? divide by 2 = 28k? - Will Hunting May 30, 08:08 6
      - aw crap, you're right, I accidentally went metric in the middle and didn't switch back. But it makes sense for coke syrup. - loosilu May 30, 08:12 5

        considering what they charge for drinks, I'd carry in. -- nm - loosilu May 30, 08:23
        
        Like I said I can see it for coke syrup. Anyway, I thought you were going nowhere near Indy. -- nm - loosilu May 30, 08:19
    - before adding ice. -- nm - loosilu May 30, 08:03 1
      - oh, and if that is Coke syrup (do we know?) then it's a lot more than that many servings at the fountain. -- nm - loosilu May 30, 08:06
  - he's quoting weight, too. beer is heavier than is soda. -- nm - miss amanda jones May 30, 07:55 2
    - it's no diesel -- nm - North Korea s.i. May 30, 08:05
    - according to my quick googling, soda is heavier than beer, but both are essentially the same as water. -- nm - loosilu May 30, 08:02
  - those are numbers from last year. -- nm - Remlik May 30, 07:42
