Although there were plenty of skeptics, many participants thought that was this would be a win-win situation for QMA. I also understand that three or four requests were made of Mr. Bolden's new motor by QMA members near the end of the year. No Bolden engines are available. So, Ron Bolden should pay QMA the $100,000.00 he promised. Now, I'm hearing that Ron Bolden doesn't believe his offer was a validated(?), or something like that. If this is the situation, and Bolden worms his way out of his stated promise (that quite frankly he flaunted at Vegas 1999), then I can assure our QMA members that I would not put any value in his next sales pitch or empty promises. Unfortunately, the Secretary that Jim Fiser brought to the meeting (to record the minutes) forgot or failed to write Bolden's promise in the minutes, however, an oral agreement is just as binding. How an attorney can miss that is beyond me. I believe that the "potential" Bolden sold/promised us affected decisions (of a majority of BOD/RD) on DECO rules voted on last year. And please don't give me JARD's version. I know what I heard.

Minutes or not, the RDs that heard the promise should step forward and press this issue. If the current BOD heard this promise and they don't use the Vegas meeting to undo the approval of a nonexistent engine, then shame on them.
