Well, Gerald, the Trader Joe's article was very interesting. I really liked the question "What fool designed your check stands?" It also reminded me that I am getting hungry for a little container of their chocolate-covered caramels, which is a really good buy at $2.00. It does not seem like they will ever go public, since they are already too large and successful, however, which is too bad for me because I always wanted to buy their stock.

How does everyone feel about Sears and Whole Foods in the same venue, and possible further cooperative agreements? Sears strikes me as very down scale, comparatively. Could that be the point, to expose the concept to a larger group of consumers (even if they have less money to spend on groceries)?
