re: TulaneLSU's statistical analysis of the merits and ratings of Publix, H-E-B, and Rouses

Legion of Doom, an excellent suggestion. I will work on fine tuning the rating system. Although I never have used a grocery store restroom, I can see how this component might factor into other peoples' views on grocery stores, thus, making it a valid inclusion category.

ELVIS U, Aldi is okay. They get a lot of hand-me-downs from Trader Joe's. I remember visiting an Aldi's-Trader Joe's combo store on N Clybourn in Chicago, not far from Alinea, and thinking all the spoiled fruit Aldi's was trying to sell was just dated leftovers from Trader Joe's.

Bob Sacamano, it is good to count our blessings day by day.

Igtiger, thank you dearly for your kindness.

Bamafig, people pronounce each of the letters separately: H, E, B.

member12, I will work on a pan-New Orleans rating for you.

Thank you for reading.

Yours,
TulaneLSU
