Dear Snoopy,

As NZ's resident expert on RBD, I have a question that you may be able to 
answer that I don't seem to be able to.

First, however, some background.  As our baseball player Yogi Berra was fond of 
saying de ja vu, all over again.  That is to say COSTCO vs WHS, now Dominio's 
vs RBD.

I think there may be some major differences, however, and that is the reason 
for this post.  I understand the direct assault COSTCO represents to WHS, but 
doesn't RBD also include Kentucky Fried Chicken and STARBUCK'S?  If I'm correct 
in this latter statement, what  percentage of RBD's net profit comes from Pizza 
Hut.  The  percentage of net profit from KFC and STARBUCK' would also be 
helpful.

Some help from the TA guys would also be helpful.  Sorry MACDUNK.

While I'm writing this may I also say that I was very saddened to see the CUP 
go to the Swiss.  I was rooting for NZ all the way and offer my condolences to 
everyone in NZ for the loss.  It probably didn't hurt me as much as it did you, 
but I felt it in my chest, and was and am saddened.  Perhaps next time.  On the 
other hand maybe the Kiwi's actually did win it since they had a Kiwi as their 
captain and a number of their crew.  I don't mean to be flippant about this, 
but when Toronto Canada won the baseball World Series, they did it with 
something like 33 Americans and two Canadians.  SO WHO REALLY WON THE CONTEST, 
although didn't get credit for it.  A thought anyway.

With  sad heart,

Allan
