This is an urban myth. If you go to www.snopes.com, a site which catalogs

urban myths, you can find an exact replica of this e-mail.

Snopes is a wonderful site. It will tell you if the info is tru, false, or

unconfirmed. It will tell you when it started circulating on the internet.

You can type a key word into the search, but coke has its own category on

the home page, called " cokelore. " I have found everything I have ever

searched for, with regard to mail I have been sent. Only two have been

listed as true. I have received this coke one several times before.
