Yes, I immediately thought that it was nothing more than an opportunity to create a mailing list. Like I need more junk mail. And how do I know they wouldn't sell this list? Creating targeted databases and selling them is quite a big money-making gig -- why should I contribute my name to see someone profit off it?

I also thought that using the name Radisson was bizarre! If it hadn't had Mark Conroy's name on it, I might have thought that it was a project done by some rogue idiots in Marketing without full corporate approval. It brought to mind the recent RSSC employee who was posting on CC without corporate permission, thinking they were "helping". But with Conroy's name on it, wouldn't you think he'd have to know about it, and sanction it?
