On the whole your letter makes sense, but I'd just like to highlight one part where I feel you might be slightly mistaken:

Obviously, since only a mere 10% of the group are list members, word of mouth appears to be working against the list.
As you said, without a survey or something one cannot be 100% sure, but I personally would think that this is an illustration of the 90:9:1 Rule in full effect. It seems that it were ever thus.
I hope you (and indeed all list members who were turned off by the events of today, which were actually an aberration and not a usual occurrence) reconsider your involvement and instead stay...but if you do not, as CNN's Richard Quest would say, "whatever you're up to in the hours ahead, I hope it's profitable."
