I would support Larry's proposal in December that his company help TLC with
their ERP, so that the outlet store might no longer be necessary.
Personally, I love the outlet stores and I have bought a few things from them
with much happiness. But I'd rather see them go away, because the fact that
the exist is not a good sign, IMHO. (Well, OTOH, the fact that they exist is
a good sign because TLC is making the best of a bad situation...but if they
continue to exist past 2001, that's probably a bad thing for TLC's future.)
