Starbucks is badly needed in New England where the ubiquitous Dunkin' Donuts likely is spreading cancer and bad vibes with George W. Bush-style abandon!

I was stunned when I read in the local paper that some folks in Newton were protesting the closing there and had started a petition. Never expected to see Starbucks as a passionate cause for citizen action.

Well, since their CEO came back, things will change.

I love the local bistras here...and we have two Starbucks, but it's a sad thing for the workers...good benefits and all.

DD may not attract the same crowd, but I like the atmosphere of local coffee shops the best :-)

The real downside on these closings is not just the loss of convenient, albeit pricey, places for coffee or, even, the associated loss of jobs. The real downside is the loss of a place for socialization and businessization (is that a word?). Dunkin' D just doesn't attract the same 'crowd'.... M
