    Just when you thought you knew everything....

    1. In many states the highway patrol carries two gallons of Coke in the trunk to remove blood from the highway after a car accident.

    2. You can put a T-bone steak in a bowl of coke and it will be gone in two days.

    3. To clean a toilet: Pour a can of Coca-Cola into the toilet bowl... Let the "real thing" sit for one hour, then flush clean.

    4. The citric acid in Coke removes stains from vitreous china.

    5. To remove rust spots from chrome car bumpers: Rub the bumper with a crumpled-up piece of Reynolds Wrap aluminum foil dipped in Coca-Cola.

    6. To clean corrosion from car battery terminals: Pour a can of Coca-Cola over the terminals to bubble away corrosion.

    7. To loosen a rusted bolt: Applying a cloth soaked in Coca-Cola to the rusted bolt for several minutes.

    8. To remove grease from clothes: Empty a can of coke into a load of greasy clothes, add detergent, and run through a regular cycle. The Coca-Cola will help loosen grease stains. It will also clean road haze from your windshield.

    9.The active ingredient in Coke is phosphoric acid. Its pH is 2.8. It will dissolve a nail in about 4 days.

    10.To carry Coca Cola syrup (the concentrate) the commercial truck must use the Hazardous material place cards reserved for Highly Corrosive materials.

    11.The distributors of coke have been using it to clean the engines of their trucks for about 20 years.

    Thats why I don't drink that shit, except for right now. Of course the coke is being overpowered by the large amount of Ice cold Crown.

    quality whiskey should never be mixed with coke, that is such a sin.

    The most surprising thing, UT, is that this seems to be 'new knowledge' to you... Maybe it's just me (and I postulate it's not) - this email has been going around the web since I first started here, almost a decade ago...

    Um, welcome to the club and shit. Want a soda to celebrate?

    Actually, you only need to swish that shit over your battery terminals and it'll eat the corrosion right off. Works like nothing else. That's why I don't drink that shit either. Unless I'm really hungover. And then it has to be out of a fountain drink machine or else the corn syrup makes me wanna puke even worse. Ahem. As you were.

    So is it just Coca-Cola, or will any generic "cola" soft drink do?
