I learned a new word today by reading the digest! Anachronism.
 
Before I thought it was just a mistake, but now I know it was an  Anachronism 
when in the episode where Andy, Goober, Aunt Bea, and Opie go to the  new car 
show in Raleigh and they are standing out in front of the gas station  
getting ready to leave and a beer truck drives by in the traffic. Not just any  
beer 
truck, but a Coors Beer Truck. Since Coors was not sold in the eastern half  
of the United States till long after the 1960's I guess it was an Anachronism  
that a Coors Beer Truck was in Raleigh at that time. Definitely out of  place 
in history. I am sure the scene was filmed in Hollywood someplace so  nothing 
unusual about a Coors Beer Truck being there and I am sure at the time  no 
one thought of the fact that there would not be any Coors Beer Trucks in  
Raleigh North Carolina at that time in history.
