That's not much of an issue... If you wait in line long enough, they'll
open another latte stand right next to your car. I think the number of
stands is approaching a 1:1 ratio with the driving population.

Reminds me of a joke about an announcement Starbucks made a few months
back that they would be doubling their retail space in North America:
The only way they could possibly double their number of locations is by
building directly on top of existing Starbucks locations...

I don't know if it's nationwide, but here Starbucks is going into the
bigger Safeways and Giants, even if another Starbucks is within 100 feet!
