58. here's the letter I wrote to 'mall' people:
December 20, 2004

Hello Ms. Duker, Ms. Szluka, and Mr. or Ms. Kavanaugh:

I read with interest this article from today's NY Times: http://www.ajc.com/business/content/shared-gen/ap/Finan...

"We are not getting the kind of lift we need. Traffic and sales were below expectations" on Saturday, said Michael P. Niemira, chief economist at the International Council of Shopping Centers. He serves as an adviser for ShopperTrak, which tallies sales results from 30,000 retail outlets.

Total sales were down 7 percent to $6.7 billion on Saturday, compared with the same Saturday in 2003, according to ShopperTrak. ShopperTrak will be releasing sales for the overall weekend later on Monday..."


Please be aware that your buying public are the 'blues' who were cheated, once again, from placing into office the person that they elected: yes, cheated as associated with corporate malfeasance.

If most of the the 'blues' are like me, we intend to take this economy down. No more Dell computers, for instance (re: Mr. Dell giving $250,000 to the presidential inauguration) ...and no more shopping at the mall. No more WalMart; no more Sam's Wholesale Club.

Let this corporate democracy wither.

We are the people, the educated people, with the incomes. We are not buying from corporate America until it listens to us.
