it was May 2, not long after yours, 4:57pm?, and I think it was comment # 383201 or 2 or 3

more important, I next replied to J_T under the Beacon Hill post

Too bad, my dear DM, I will try to hijack you as well. Here goes:

Welcome to the neighborhood, Chipotle, and best of luck.

Let me introduce myself. I work for a few local arts related non-profits. I will be calling on you to support the Arts Festival and the Wine Festival and the Book Festival and maybe other things.

I won’t be the only caller and they won’t be the only causes. Your competitors (neighbors) in Decatur buy ads in our event programs and provide cash and/or in kind sponsorships. They put our flyers on their counters and our posters in their windows.

I think these business owners understand that a vibrant downtown leads to more business downtown.

So please expect me to call on you. In the meantime I will mention that Taqueria del Sol is a long time supporter of the Decatur Arts Alliance and Raging Burrito’s generosity–well we’d have to have a conversation to describe. So I go to both these places, as do my friends.

For DM’s readers: the Arts Festival program is available around town. Please thank our beloved sponsors and patronize our dear advertisers.

We already have an Applebees in North Dekalb Mall, and a Wendy’s on Scott – sure it’s “Decatur” but close enough.
Pizza Hut?? I can’t think of one near here, but with Sapori/Fellinis/Avellinos that’s OK with me.
