Randy, do you know I have never been to a Wal-Mart in my life? I really must go, but I hate crowds, and I'd never take my Porsche to any mall. So put on your helmet, hop on your mountain bicycle (bring a lock too), and head out on an urban adventure! Hey! I wish you'd see more shoppers taking out Crest. It's a major problem I have with P&G is they let Colgate "Total" overtake them, and is now the nations best selling toothpaste. I know this toothpaste problem well, as even I switched from Crest to Total (it's simply the best toothpaste I've found). So my dad's Colgate holdings get the benefit of my purchases. But then again, both of my brothers' families use Crest. I guess PG has to compete with triclosan primarily. BTW, I doubt the Walmart shoppers will be turning to the web anytime soon for the things they buy at Walmart -- seems like the purchase is always something different. We'll see though. I don't own WMT, but I do own shares of the "Walmart of the web" ;-). Randy
