  • "Inviting progress," St. Paul Pioneer Press, Oct. 11, 2007. "It's hard to trust somebody who's never taken heat for a big mistake.

"'These things cloud people's feelings,' said Dave Brennan, co-director of the Institute for Retailing Excellence at the University of St. Thomas. 'Once you get into gloom and doom, it colors things.
