A small, yet refreshing win

As a follow-up to my earlier posting "Chew on This", this news story posted yesterday:

"The beverage industry's agreement to remove sugary soft drinks from public and private U.S. schools over the next three years — a plan engineered with the help of former president Bill Clinton — is drawing mixed reactions from kids and critics."

Here's the full story:

To me, this is a step in the right direction. And this is coming from someone who lived on Diet Coke in high school. So I'm not a hypocrite, I guess I'll have to find a substitute for my occasional Jack & Coke.
