hahaha that would actually be pretty sweet, if only for the nostalgia.

ATM (where the hell do they call it a time machine?)

It's actually Tyme, and it's only a Wisconsin/UP of Michigan thing. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyme

TYME ("Take Your Money Everywhere") is an ATM/interbank network in Wisconsin and the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. It was organized in 1975 and was the first shared EFT network in the country. Residents commonly referred to ATMs as a "Tyme machine," which has resulted in confusion when Wisconsinites visiting unfamiliar areas would ask the locals where they could find a "time machine".

The TYME network merged with the Pulse network in 2002, and took the Pulse brand name in 2004. The combined Pulse/TYME network includes about 81,000 ATMs and 457,000 merchant point-of-sale locations.

People substitute major brand names for items all the time; Hell, that's the reasoning behind the whole Tyme machine thing in this thread. You've never heard anyone ask for a Kleenex? a Q-tip? Referring to carbonated soft drinks in general as "coke" is just a southern thing, I believe.
