I sent Surge-enthusiast Mike Cambell the link to Save Surge. His response is worth posting, I think:

Indeed, I am familiar with savesurge.org. They almost succeeded in bringing Surge back, but Coca-Cola cancelled plans for a limited production run back in March. Never have I felt more cheated. The whole idea of a free market is that I can exchange money for goods and services, and yet Coca-Cola had stuck me with a hearty, "Fuck you, we don't want your money." I was literally filled with rage.

Then it turned out that Coke was releasing a new citrus soda called Vault. According to nerds on the Internet, it's like 95% Surge. Well, nerds on the Internet know squat, because in a side-by-side taste test between a stockpiled Surge and Vault, Surge was at least 400% better. Vault tastes like piss and has no edge, but Surge is fully loaded and in my face at all times. I'm not ashamed to say that I have an eXtreme leisure style, and there is no place in my life for bullshit fakes marketed as "hybrid energy drinks."

He also included this link to an article about Iraqi insurgents dosing up before combat. Interesting Jacob's Ladder type speculation.
