I think I found the reason he's collecting email addresses from our members. The answer comes in one of his Amazon.com Reviewer's reviews:

"4.0 out of 5 stars This is a great read, July 3, 2010
By Jeff 'SKI' Kinsey (Hilton Head Island SC) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Red Chaser (Kindle Edition)
I consider Jon Spoelstra one of the top five marketing gurus of our time. His book, "Marketing Outrageously" is a must own, and I tell him so several times a year! So, when he alerted me to his spy thriller, I actually had mixed emotions. Furthermore, it is available only on Kindle. In fact, it was my first purchase on the Kindle format. Amazon offers a great Kindle reader for my iPod touch. So it worked out well. At just $3.99 consider it a must own; all work makes one very dull. Set in the 1950s and touching on baseball and communist spies actually makes me long for the movie version!"

So he's "one of the top five marketing gurus of our time" and I bet all those email addresses are part of his "marketing outrageously!" for some undisclosed future use. Or to sell. Or just spam. Whatever.

Just a thought for consideration...
