Dave,

I've visited one of the Dirty Bird Cafes in Atlanta, which as I'm sure you're aware, is part of FVSN. The food was good and I thought the restaurant was very well done. I bought FVSN in the .60s and sold all at $1.50. Other than for purposes of a trade do you really think an online grocery from a small company such as FVSN has any future at all long term? Profit margins in the grocery business are around 1% so you have to do tremendous volume to be profitable. I don't see the masses of people using a service such as this, which is necessary for profitibility. I simply don't buy this business model at all for the internet and assuming it could be successful Kroger and your bigger chains will be there with the financial clout to last it out. The Wall Street Journal had an article on online grocerys just the other day which touched on these very issues. What do you like about FVSN? I enjoy your posts and the detail you provide, looking forward to your response.
