Loved it. I kept wondering when you'd mention the failure of Starbucks to treat its workers fairly. Alas, I do not frequent Starbucks anymore and will not until they allow a unionized workforce. I did appreciate the joke.

There were some other issues I could have included, indeed. Starbucks has become so entwined with the third places story that I've ended up learning much more about it than I would have imagined. Bryant Simon's book is really good, btw, because it's a history of the era, not just the company.
