Possibly...   The earlier generations had plenty of smaller stores
nicely located within the city limits, including one right in Midtown
Plaza (in the center of the city)....  the girls have moved away from
that vision of the store...  I don't mind so much their innovations,
most of which have been right nice, but it's sad that it comes at the
cost of the city and the less well-franchised...  Maybe PR spiff would
turn that around, but depends on who they listen to...  :)

That's not all that much different from Minnie's eggs, then...  :)  She
might have been more trusting that the eggs would be fine, to just break
them into the pan...  ;)
