How about a little transparency in UFOC's? How about they disclose ALL store closures, so prospects can make an informed deciscion instead of hiding facts? This happens especially online when ZORS list stores as temporarily closed. tsk tsk While we're on the subject-If you are going to supply people with store informationhow about it be kept up to date and accruate? If you can't then lets not put it out there at all,it's deceiveing, unless thats your goal! How about we start with EMP? Can they spend some time updating their website to accurately account for the amount of stores that have CLOSED, indy as well as ZOR....the numbers of stores in operation on that website are GROSSLY overstated. It is a very sad way to entice people to buy into a FAILED CONCEPT, by putting out bogus statistics and fiction as fact. I would challenge the CENA Zors (and other ZORs) to show us the money!
