But then again, I'm just a stupid American, and I have yet to see a Japanese system that didn't work well.

I had to travel all the way to Paris to try my first though! And, please, wake me when all the FP talk is dead ...yawn ... yawn ...

You boys in O-town won't have the pleasure.

I also fin it interesting that $1 off coupons hitting the mailers already - could signify some sales concersn and subsequent price point research - I hope

I'd rather just talk about what I can personally observe to be an irritant to guests. Whether it's fair or not, when you're standing in the sun for a long time and not moving much as MANY Fper's pass you by, it's an irritant. You don't have to believe me. Believe your own experience, or the quotes from other posters who have pointed this out. If the lines were separate, it wouldn't change the fact that my line is going slow. But at least I wouldn't have to WATCH the reason why in real time. That's all I mean by keeping things separate. Perception means a lot.

My lifes best friend is a seior VP for Coke and we have told her a few times now that here in Chicago fo rinstance- we have received NO commerical time - only a $1 coupon in a Sunday flier. She is trying to find out what is going on for me on this-- she just got back from 3 weeks in the far east ( her territoru) - I will pass along what I hear

Remember? (I know you do.) This is the company that killed the Fanta brand in the USA, which was huge in the 70s (loved that grape) to instead introduce a line of Minute Maid soda products that limped along for about a decade. Now, they've spent five years and hundreds of millions to reintroduce Fanta to the American consumer. Then we have the C2 Coke and Coke Zero and ... so on and so forth ... They almost remind me of Disney with their inability to know their products and their consumers. So I won't be surprised if CokeBlak disappears. Maybe I should go stock up ...

New Coke almost sent me off the cliff --- I didn't think anyone could be that stupid --I was wrong
