Starbuck CEO Howard Schultz is ready to talk – and no, it’s not about coffee beans or why the Sonics are playing in Oklahoma City these days and are called the Thunder. Jim Brunner at The Seattle Times reports:

As part of his highly-publicized campaign to end partisan gridlock in Washington, D.C., Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz will participate in what’s being billed as a “Conversation with America” next Tuesday.

The nationwide telephone Town Hall event is being organized by the nonprofit group No Labels, which describes itself as a citizen-led movement aimed at pressuring leaders to set aside partisan differences and focus on solving the nation’s problems.
