In other words, they can throw you in jail anytime they want for whatever
they want. Don't worry, be happy.

I don't know if it applies to this list (but it is run by the PTG), but we 
should all be aware of the anti-trust guidelines that we must follow:

http://www.ptg.org/members/resources-antiTrustGuidelines.php  (members area 
only)

There must be no discussions at association meetings that may in any way 
tend to: a) Raise, lower, or stabilize prices or fees, b) Regulate 
production levels or schedules, c) Affect the availability of products or 
services, d) Affect allocation of markets, territories, customers, or 
patients, e) Encourage boycotts or exclusions of products or services, f) 
Foster unfair practices involving advertising, merchandising, 
standardization, certification or accreditation, g) Encourage anyone to 
refrain from competing, h) Limit or exclude anyone from manufacture, sale, 
or practice, i) Result in illegal brokerage or rebates, j) Affect improper 
reciprocity in dealing, k) Current or future prices, l) What constitutes a 
fair profit or margin level, m) Possible increases or decreases in prices, 
n) Standardization or stabilization of prices, o) Pricing procedures, p) 
Cash discounts, q) Credit discounts, r) Control of sales, s) Allocation of 
markets, t) Refusal to deal with a firm because of its pricing or 
distribution practices, u) Whether or not the pricing practices of any 
industry member are unethical or constitute an unfair trade practice, v) 
Terms or conditions of sale, w) Market share, x) Customer or supplier 
classification, allocation or selection, y) Decisions to quote or not to 
quote, z) Sales territories.
