I would vote to allow a continuation of posting of EMC/safety seminars. This is valuable information and Henry Ott, for instance, is certainly a prestigious contributor to the field.
On the flip side, though, I believe that EMC and safety consultants have some obligation to make contributions to this forum and it seems like they never do. In addition, the papers they submit to the journals seem to sometimes lack the detailed information that would make them useful in a practical sense. Even in their seminars some of these experts seem to prefer to simply grind out the same old basic and abstract stuff while saving the more useful information for some "special" or "separate" seminar costing still more money. The bottom line, I guess, is that we should start asking them to participate in this forum, when appropriate, in exchange for advertising privileges. I suggest members should also provide negative feedback on seminars that don't provide practical, useful information, substantiated by emissions tests.

I think this is a good rule. This should not be a forum for "free" advertising. There are plenty of other appropriate avenues for people to advertise their goods and services.

Am I wrong?
