Somebody else criticized this vision of mine as that of an unfocused company. Is
Wal-Mart unfocused because they sell so many different types of merchandise?


Tom,

Walmart is a "discount" store. All their merchandise is really the same. Look for large appliances, automobiles, qua;ity furniture, etc. You will not find it. They stick to merchandise they know. Low end discount.

Alex Brown projects 5% annual growth in the US Book market

Alex Brown knows far less about the book market than the people that sell books. I would rather here what BKS and BGP are projecting. Those are numbers I can trust.

You may have some kind of vision that I certainly do not understand. However, AMZN is a flash in the pan and will be gone within three years. They do not even have a business model in their 10K.
