  I like that analogy!

Except that sometimes the parking lot is full only because they are the best
eats within the next few hundred miles.  Doesn't mean they're GOOD, just that
they're the best of a bad lot.

I think the assumption is that given the choice of any number of eating
establishments in close proximity, choose the one with the full parking lot.

But your point is well taken: Sometimes your choices are Mac & Dons, Taco
Smell, Spendy's, or KFGrease-- in that case it really doesn't matter *whose*
lot is full;-)
