RE: iNation moving right along

Hmm...

Is it the appeal of quality luggage that made people sign up more than once?

Maybe because deduping lists of various kinds of names and addresses (street
and e-mail) has been more than just a lifestyle choice for me in the last
few years, I find it somewhere between amusing and appalling that they
didn't dedupe the prospective citizens up front.  I mean this is a huge
company that does a lot of direct marketing.

The easy inference is that iNation isn't one of their most important
efforts.
