David,

I was on that call and Jay never suggested running his own seminars. Perhaps he suggested that the association itself might at some point run educational seminars? Not really sure what you think you heard, but you are mistaken.

If you were truly under the impression that Jay was planning to tag along his own for-profit seminars to the association, why did you not raise objections at that time? The misunderstanding could have been cleared up in a minute. Instead, according to what you are saying now, you've sat on this for almost two months. You didn't bring it up then. You didn't mention it in your numerous emails to the conference planning group after that conference call. You didn't bring it up in any of the subsequent conference calls when I was in attendance. You didn't even bring the issue up when you quit attending the conference calls because of differences of opinion regarding membership requirements.

If your allegations were true, you would have had every right to be concerned, upset even. But there is no evidence that you ever had one concern about Jay running a seminar business until your previous post.

You now have Jay's word that he's never had any plans of running his own seminars. I personally think you owe him an apology.
