There is an irony in quoting Brandeis' line in a thread about the site that you "freelance" for that is entirely opaque and misleads consumers daily. You may have learned that line somewhere but it certainly doesn't stand for the principle that one must use their real name to critique a commercial publication and it's content.

(In addition, do you get paid for the Chicago Seminars? Because that's the sunshine that Brandeis was talking about)

Hope you and all the other mommy freelancers of TPG have a great weekend.
No one gets paid for Chicago Seminars. I would think Flyertalk Insiders would know that. We get our rooms comped and our flights reimbursed (to a point), but no speaking fees or other compensation. It's been that way for ten years.

I'm not dictating anything, simply asking for a modicum of decorum. If that's too much for you, I understand.
