There may be a pop quiz later

In Michigan, we call carbonated beverages "pop".
I've learned that other places prefer the term "soda".
And still other places call all carbonated beverages "coke".

In this retro post over at the Jannaverse, back in August 2007, I explored the kind of confusion this can cause.
You may want to take notes.

To summarize:
.
Michigan:
Coke = pop
Soda = white powdery stuff
.
California:
Soda = Coke
Coke = white powdery stuff

Feel free to analyze. :)
