Because you are an Executive Board member and as such it belongs in the BINFO's and most likely in the confidential BINFO's since you are discussing the personal life of an employee of the USCF. There are some issues in personnel that are simply private issues and belong inside the domain of the management of USCF and not the public purview. A little respect for privacy would go a long way.

Sorry, but I disagree. With respect to a regular mid-level employee I
agree with you. However, the Executive Director is the public face of
the organization. When Governor Pataki of New York was hospitalized,
it was all over the news including the frequency of his bowel
movements. If Bill Hall frequently does not come to work because of an
"infected toe" and then a car accident, the members need to know about
it, especially since the real problem is board inaction and
incompetence in dealing with this issue.

And yes, I said it. This board is incompetent.

I myself did not know that Bill Hall was frequently absent from work
until about two months ago. I knew that other members of the board
were unhappy with Bill Hall and even wanted to fire him, but I did not
know the reason, until somebody leaked me this little secret.

I would like to see some legal authority to support your claim that
the Executive Director of a 501(c)(4) corporation has a "right to
privacy" which protects him from having it revealed that he cannot do
his job.

Sam,
I have provided the information in previous posts. You are free to
call the phone number yourself to get clairification. It doe not
matter what kind of organization it is. You screwed up.

Sorry, you lose again.

I just called the number you posted here (866) 627-7748 and spoke to
Mr. Carter there.

Mr. Carter said "in no way, shape or form" would the USCF be subject
to the HIPPA privacy rules.
