Panorama coming to you

I've subscribed a whole bunch of the correspondents to our weekly newsletter Panorama. It should come on Wednesdays, and I've made some gut calls on which of our three languages you would prefer. (If you want a different language, just ask.)

If you don't see it on Wednesday, might be I've skipped you, or used the wrong e-mail. In any case, just send me a note with your e-mail and tell me want language you want.

The newsletter is useful in that, I've found, it helps you connect to the real news in the region, and you can begin to see how stories might be regionalized. For instance, a group of Mexican companies is trying to de-list from the New York Stock Exchange. They blame tougher U.S. accounting rules. Might be sour grapes; the billionaire who controls the companies is under investigation by the SEC right now, and he ain't happy about that. Or, you might start hearing similar rumbling among your own, local companies. Sounds like a story.

Also, if you see funky stuff -- accents gone screwy, spaces out of whack, formatting weirding out -- please let me know ASAP. Likewise, if your Panorama e-mails end up in your Bulk or Spam boxes, that would be nice to know too. Some of you are on big, Web-based e-mail systems, so a check on quality as these come out is always welcome. We're moving toward opt-in systems, but unless people tell us what they see or don't see, we have no idea.
