<<Waiting ... and waiting ... for Webvan

By Dick Satran

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug 10 (Reuters) - When the earth-toned Webvan rolled up our street
early one recent Saturday morning, it gave me a little thrill -- ``The future,' I thought. No more
battling for a parking space, no more taking a number at the deli counter, no more standing in
line at the checkout. No more waiting.

The van would be carrying the Niman beef, the Gorgonzola cheese, the gnocchi pasta, the
bottle of Zinfandel, the spring green salad and the zucchini for the special Saturday dinner we
were planning.>>
