in reply to I refer to a non-specified carbonated beverage as a:

I think I undertstand the purpose of this poll, as I have noted that there seems to be different American dialects across the USA where the word soda transmogrifies to Pop (poppe) right around the same place where a paper receptacle in grocery stores changes from 'bag' to 'sack'.

However, since the word CAFFENATED was ommitted I voted for 'soda'... Anything WITH the magical tasteless substance included falls more under the category of 'FUEL'

Am I the only one who's noticed though that the average carbonated beverage goes for around $.99 while bottled water is about $1.50? I find it interesting to note that people are willing to pay more to have someone's product NOT included in their beverage...
