I always used to say "Coke" then after hanging out with the brothers from our University of Maine chapter at our Fraternity's Leadership Conference, picked up their habit of callign it a "soda.'" Ever sense then, I have called it that. My mom and sister give me grief.
Damn Yankees.
BTW, there are even differences about the way things are called in state. For instance, what do you call the side roads next to a freeway, that are used for getting on and off of the freeway that connect you to the side streets? In San Antonio, theyre "access roads," in Houston, they're "feeder" roads, in Dallas they're "service" roads, in Austin its "frontage" road.
Damnedest thing.
