I received the strangest letter in the mail yesterday. After over a month of sending postcards to everyone on Maniac's list (can't remember where his thread is right now) about every-other weekend, Coca-Cola responded.

This is the body of the letter:

Thank you for contacting us at The Coca-Cola Company. We appreciate your kind remarks regarding our advertising during Firefly.

It is very thoughtful of you to share your comments about this program with us. We try to associate our brands with programming that will be appealing to our consumers. Your comments let us know that we've been selecting the right programs to showcase our refreshing soft drinks!

Should the show return to the air, we will certainly consider advertising with it again. If you ever have any more comments or questions, please feel free to write again.

Shiny. The postcards to Coca-Cola were addressed to Mr. J. Greg Clark; the letter from Coca-Cola is from a Jennifer Bittick. The reply address is P.O. Box 1734, Atlanta , GA 30301, which is the same mailing address as Mr. Clark.

It gave me hope. Maybe if it goes over well, rating-wise in the UK (aired in order, not preempted by baseball) we'll get more in a year or so.

Keep Flying.

Holy, keeping up the pressure or what. My hat is literally off to you. I only mailed to the most obvious Network people. It's fans like you who will hopefully make actual progress. Thanks
