    I was there just today

    No Satanic crack babies jumped out at me. I rather like their $4 generic prescription plan. It's way cheaper than my employer's Medco mail order plan. In fact if Wal*Mart provided health care like my doctor or my dentist, I'd jump at it. I just spent almost $1000 on a crown - and that's my portion of it after my oh so generous 30% coverage from the plan I pay for.
