The age old question: does a bear email in the woods?

That is to say, bears hate email spam — bears love Spam in a can especially when it’s open and they can get at it.
The eMail Guide team has been having quite a hoot watching as the “email marketing bear” (@bearinbar) has roamed from pub to office in his two videos to date, expressing his fondness for garbage-looting, eating Blackberries and apparently, Constant Contact.
