OT: WSJ financial article with Porsche (Rennlist?) angle

Not often you pick up the Wall Street Journal and start reading an article where you see a name and go, "hey, I know that guy!" But it's Bob Rodriguez, who I casually knew from when I was doing POC events in the earlier part of the decade. He gave me my checkout ride when I showed up, plus I knew Galen Bieker who was prepping his cars.
So anyway, I'm sure a lot of you here know him and I thought I'd point it out if you don't read the Journal.

Bob's a great guy..... I first met him at a POC driver's clinic in 2005 when he was walking the track with us newbies and pointing out various marks, run-offs, etc. At the time, I didn't realize he had just won POC's tribute to LeMans at Cal Speedway (televised on the Speed Channel).... a true Porsche die-hard.
