I am a Red Lobster fan! I have eaten at many of their locations dozens of times. I will try their new format and will decide whether it meets my approval, and I expect that it will. I think "wishing" anyone to fail is rather silly, unless sharing your wishes is designed to rally others to assure your wish comes true. I expect the consumers nationwide will vote with their pocketbooks on whether Darden made the right call, and the new concept will thrive or fail on its merits. It may be New Coke, or it may be the I Phone.
