 Nice attempt to semi-slam, Michael. Thought you were over the personal verbal jousting game.........

Anyways, IAJE went bankrupt in 2009. We modeled after the 18 successful years of my involvement with IAJE back in the pre-TATE days. The modeling was not the financial side, but was based on their successful convention philosophies. That convention grew in attendance from 800 to 40000, so they must have been doing something right. Anything wrong with modeling that, Mike?





We who actually support and belong to SPAH here in the Platinum Age, should be 
careful about modeling anything after an organization that went bankrupt like 
the IAJE (I loved them and was a member.)

planning the conventions pre-TATE - modeled SPAH after those mammoth 
International Association of Jazz Education conventions, using their successes 
to our advantage. Worked great and no one had to reinvent the wheel.
