* Stop introducing new products outside the core menu.

* Stop courting the media when it comes to quality.

* Stop the retail bagged coffee.

* Start improving value perceptions.

* Continue streamlining the menu.

* Re-focus on families.

She's not even an Operator and has a pretty good idea of just some of the things that need to be done.

As an Operator, I can tell you the restructuring of the financial statement to give us back 6-8 points is what the start point should be.

Nothing means anything if Operators can't cash flow.
