1. I wonder if Rumsfeld's pet product, Aspartame, has something to do with this? nt

5. I rarely drink soft drinks of any kind, but on the occasion that I do, it's never

diet soda.

I haven't researched this, but there seems to be an increase in pancreatic cancer these days. I've wondered for a long time if the sugar substitutes (like Aspartame) don't have a part in this.

I don't touch that diet stuff in any of the foods I buy.

2. Well then, as a Pepsi-holic I'm glad I could never get used to

that foul-tasting diet soda stuff, which is for soda wimps. I like my tonic full strength.

3. I rather drink water or diluted soda

than any of those fake Frankein sugar sodas. Thanks god that I never got used to the taste

I guess that is the end of diet drinks for me.
I got too many risk factors to be playing around with this.
