Those old Coke ads are pretty cool. I'm not sure how to re-create that look with
POV-Ray. They seem to depend on a certain style of drawing. People from the '50s
looked a lot more wholesome than today!

I guess the slang term "Drink the Kool-Aid" isn't as commonly used as I thought.
I'm glad I added the explanation. A similar concept is being a "company man,"
although according to my understanding of the terms "drinking the Kool-Aid" has
a more sinister, insidious connotation. It's truly moral suicide. I've known a
few people who've done it and it's a horrible thing. The eventual results are
divisiveness, arrogance, shallowness, corruption, betrayal, greed, and hatred.
There's no going back. Hence the comparison to the Jonestown event.
