The green mermaid is build not far from me. It will be their 4th
store in a town of 80,000. Years ago I'd have been apoplectic about
having them in the neighborhood. Not so today. No more than another
run-of-the-mill coffee purveyor moving into the area. I'm certain they
will take a nibble or two, but not like the monster bite they would have
years ago. As the article indicates, they are on every corner now and
seem less unique and less of a threat to established coffee houses. The
one that is being built is without a drive-through which I find very odd
in this area. Anybody know if there are *bucs that stay open 24/7? Thats
the rumor around now is that this one will be open all the time. I'd
find that difficult in this area also.http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/19997662/

24/7 Starbucks? People actually stay up that late? In the midwest,
it seems everything closes at 10 pm.
