Dear Mr. Ducore, I have been following the proceedings around Whole Foods/Wild Oats. I understand that Portland, Maine has the possibility of being a test case for righting the wrong done when Whole Foods bought up Wild Oats then shut them down, effectively creating a monopoly. I am very much in favor of returning Portland to an area that has healthy competition between natural food markets. I am in favor of Trader Joe's coming to town. Thank you for your attention to this matter, Kathleen Norris
