Kelly,

Thanks for the Pepsi 'can'!

I've been out of town for a few weeks and haven't had much time to surf.

I take your point on trying radical things. Unfortunately, PepsiCo forgot to try what worked in America for 20 years first.

MD just isn't happening in the UK.

I contacted PepsiCo International here in London to get some feedback on the marketing of MD here in the UK and they referred me to some guy in New York.

I guess I'll drop the issue from this point. Perhaps PepsiCo International will take a more 'active' role in what it sells when Coke launches a 'green-yellow' drink here. I assume it will happen eventually. And MD will be killed off for good.

At least I'll still be able to buy it when I visit the US and South Africa.

Thanks again for the can!!

Looking forward to great spin-off!

Douglas
