for those who cannot follow this without a scorecard:
-Dave Thomas passed away in 2002
-The new management ran Wendys Corp into the ground
within just a few years
- Wendys filed for bankruptcy and was bought by Arbys
- Arbys nursed them back to health and quickly found Wendys to be a much more profitable enterprise than Arbys
- So Arbys is selling off Arbys and becoming Wendys. Wendys will be the company formerly known as Arbys while Arbys is taken over by this group from Atlanta.
Sounds like the AOL/Time-Warner deal............
