[Sosfbay-discuss] Seeking Info on Wal-Mart in Milpitas

[alexcathy at aol.com]

Dear Green Friends, 

While attending my grandson's 11th birthday this weekend, I was told that Wal-Mart is again trying to upgrade it's Milpitas store to a "Super Center." 

Have any of you heard about this?? I was going to write a Letter-to-the-Editor of the Milpitas Post, but I can't find their contact information.? I know Rob Means is a "good friend" of the Milpitas Post :).? Rob, Andrea, could you help me out on this?

I was still living in Milpitas a few years ago when Wal-Mart tried to do this and Milpitas folks pushed back.? Now, I suspect they think they can exploit the current recession to trot out their old argument about creating a few low-wage jobs.? It occurred to me this is a textbook case of how people are mortals living ordinary lives, but big bad corporate "persons" like Wal-Mart are immortal.
