Hopefully the Sears debate may be ended by simply comparing your local Sears to your local JCPenny. On a point for point basis our local JCPenny beats our local Sears. My theory has it that Sears retail was hamstrung when their top-management was diluted to cover the wider range of activities. -- //Z\\ James M.

It used to be, for example, that when you went to the hardware section you had a halfway decent chance of getting a salesperson who knew something about tools; now you're on your own-- all they do is ring it up.
