What could be the reason for this? > Is this the "Denny's Principle" at work? This isnt exactly true, although the situation isn't what it should be. Perhaps it depends on your definition of "decent sit-down restaurant"; i can name a few places in Greenbelt and Laurel which have good food and nice decor, by my standards. But there's much room for improvement, i agree! What really irks me is that the more acceptable chains won't even consider putting a branch in PG --- we could use a Fresh Fields supermarket or a California Pizza Kitchen a heck of alot more than yet another Arby's/Wendy's/MacD's or Sizzler or Olive Garden ...... -- Judy Karpen "I'm a scientist...I dont think, I observe!
