Whoa, Mike, I don't live in Texas,and that makes me happy, I live in Kansas
and that doesn't make me too happy these days. Since we fought on the union
side, we most assuredly are not the south, although in certain undesirable
neighborhoods the occasional confederate flag can be seen.
The stores that Wal-Mart closed here were mostly the "Neighborhood Market"
stores, which was a real loss to the community. They weren’t all that great,
but they built them in places that had been abandoned by other stores as the
trend to HUGE stores got out of hand. I do think there were express stores
closed in smaller communities.

Sorry Bill. I was using a small "S" south relative to the US and TX fits
the description like it or not :) Frankly around here we think of TX as
kinda like a weird uncle who moved in and won't leave. ;)
Looks like 3/5ths of the stores closed were the Express stores. Not sure
the % in the US. Never shop there so not familiar with their stores.
