David, I thought the report was just extraordinary considering the competitive conditions in their business. I didn't remember the same-store numbers being much different in the previous quarter -- do you have that stat on hand? In any case, if the discounting battles ever let up a bit, there would be another means by which FM's same-store numbers could start to pick up again. I also continue to believe that if they could increase the efficiency of their drive-through operations (speaking as an L.A. area customer) we'd see a bump that way -- sometimes the lines are long and slow enough to possibly discourage some potential traffic. But the bottom line is, first a credit rating upgrade, then we beat estimates by a cent or two...Jack's on a roll and it ain't sour dough! Regards, Chris
