Spank me

Each day we do get a report on who subscribes, and who unsubscribes from the e-Newsletter, and we look at that for several reasons. One of the reasons is that it is an early indicator of job changes in the industry. But it doesn't always work in that order.

Last week in Issue 2494 (December 12th), we announced that Peter Harris had resigned his post as president and CEO of West Marine. But today he unsubscribed. We hope he subscribes again under a different email address.

In today's report, we also noted that Alinghi lawyer Ana Gilrobles was added to our subscription list. It seemed to be her task during the 32nd ACUP to spank all the little people for their use of the America's Cup brand. She spanked us. I wonder if she will spank me if I unsubscribe her?
