Paul,

Regarding WFMI...

I used to shop at a Bread and Circus in Boston. There you can get organically grown vegetables, tofu in unimaginable variety and the like. Most people who shopped there were 60's throwbacks. Women with hairy legs and Birkenstock sandals and middle-aged men with a novel under one arm, unkempt beards and a used Volvo with a "Save the Whales" sticker on the rear bumper. I used to buy unsalted cashews there by the bucketfull and Edensoy milk during one of my soy milk phases. I know that there is a strong health food movement now with an emphasis on organically grown food and free range chickens. I have not seen any such franchises in my neck of the woods. In any case, there may be a niche mega-market for upscaled franchises catering to those that share this lifestyle committment.

I noticed that WFMI has had relatively stable earnings the last several quarters and will net about 2 dollars per share this year if they stay on track. The notion of franchising is an interesting one as it could lead to sustained growth as newer regional markets are penetrated.

I really don't see steady revenue growth at this point, but the stock is relatively cheap. Why are you interested in particular in WFMI? Please elaborate. Are you anticipating continued growth and for what reasons. Seems like The Street has left WFMI without paying their check.

How is this stock even remotely similar to SanDisk???
Help me out here!!!
