1. I can accept a lot of the differences, but the "coke" thing is just dumb. Someone who asked me what kind of coke I wanted would just get a blank stare.
2. I dunno who all these people are in Massachusetts calling it a traffic circle. It literally says rotary on most of the signs.
3. I always thought the "bubbler" thing was more widespread in New England. I grew up in southeastern Mass. so we got a lot of spillover from Rhode Island, I guess it's more localized than I thought.

Diet, Zero, Regular, Cherry, Lime. But that's it.

I see Rotary signs everywhere, too. Gold gear on a blue background, see www.rotary.org.

Don't forget Vanilla. But I guess that's been discontinued too (like Lime?).
Also, Nobody said 'Cola'? Something's up with that there survey. 
Notice the tit design in my other post. That pattern seems persistent in all the other maps. It makes me wonder how they did that. What. Are "they" compiling voice data from phone calls?
Big Brother ftw!
