Dear Mel: Dont know where you live, but my wife is the Patient Coordinator for Intensive Rehab, Skilled Nursing Unit (a short term nursing home type facility) and the Permanent Nursing Home at here hospital. I can tell you from the other side of the fence its not that easy to obtain patients (my wifes job is to evaluate patients for admission and to keep the beds full). Nursing homes are closing all over the country due in part I believe to excess capacity and there is competition in that field for patients. This bubblewrap business I think is prepostorous and my wife agrees (she has 20 years experience in the field). Just irks me to no end. I dont suppose they SELL the bubblewrap medications??
Sorry folks for getting off the subject. As to Costco, just shopped there last night and I can tell you the employees that I know (all of whom own COST stock are very enthused for the future of the stock price. JDN
