"I thought this was a list of portland entrepreneurs doing good things for the community, and wal Mart is the antithesis of that. We all know that."

No, not all of us know that. I don't know that at all. Wal-Mart has done more for the poor in this country (and a lot of other countries) than any thousand cities packed with mobile app developers riding $500 custom fixies and sipping $4 gourmet coffees.

I jest, but seriously. Try being poor; there's a reason people shop at Walmart.

    I understand the motivation to sell a business. I just would really question the ethics of this decision, to put it diplomatically. I dont think the logic of making money should be too difficult to figure out. For me the action itself is self-explanatory. I thought this was a list of portland entrepreneurs doing good things for the community, and wal Mart is the antithesis of that.
     
    We all know that.
     
    Regardless I hope the talk goes ok. I'm in school at that time.
     
    Warmly,

    I just moderated through three messages that were stuck in the queue. Sorry for not catching them sooner.
     
    I haven’t been getting moderation emails from Google Groups. Come to find out, this is a common problem that is affecting all Google Groups:
    http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/gmail/thread?tid=58af9396f9358dc6&hl=en
     
    I’m going to try to remember to check the web interface more frequently until they fix the issue.
