		<description>Nick,

I appreciate your multi-sided debate about Jason&#039;s post, but I side on defending it; there&#039;s no question of the ethicality of his practice of signing up those who request to connect with him to his newsletter as long as he&#039;s upfront about it.  LinkedIn is a business tool and a supposed relationship-builder.  A tasteful, informative newsletter builds credibility and exposure which is paramount to relationship.

Thanks for the post; you&#039;re now on my reader.</description>
