seems optimistic, but what happens when you remove the conditions for impulse buying, the last remaining social aspects of shopping, and undermine whole shopping districts which are based on those principles? What happens to those brands when their presence in your community becomes just a presence in your cache? How many brands would you buy sight unseen? I can think of one, Sony. How many store brands would you prefer if the store didn't happen to be nearby? I can't think of any. Don't get me wrong. I think the results are going to be great for the environment and for human life in general. I just don't think that many patients are going to survive the operation. Looks like IT is starting, the part where reorganizing the economy looks more bloody than sanguine.
