Survey to Save SURGE Update
Below you will find the text of an open letter from 6/3/04 I wrote to SURGE fans on the SaveSURGE.org Bulletin Board:

“Hey Everyone,

Well as many of you know, we have been waiting (patiently, I might add) for some news about The Survey to Save SURGE that we did back in April. I heard a little something today and I wanted to share it with you.

Right now Coke is still discussing SURGE. The survey must have gotten their attention because they have been discussing what to do with it for some time!

At this point I have not been made aware of any date when they will make a decision. But, just the mere fact that they continue to discuss SURGE is great news! I figure if they weren't going to bring it back that decision would have been made pretty quickly. I'm still very confident it's going to come back

We just need to stay the course and keep letting them know that we aren't going away until we get our drink!

Thanks to all of you for your help!

Stay positive,

Eric”

Please stay tuned to SaveSURGE.org for more information as it becomes available.

New Coke CEO Takes Over
E. Neville Isdell officially took over as the CEO of Coca-Cola on Tuesday, June 1. He replaces Doug Daft, who has retired. Isdell himself has come out of retirement to work for the company with whom he had previously spent 35 years.

Isdell is said to be a great listener and will be open to new ideas. Hopefully that will include the idea of bringing SURGE back to store shelves!

We at SaveSURGE.org would like to wish Mr. Isdell great success in his new position atop the world’s biggest brand.
