TEDxChennai 2012 license cancelled...

All the hue and cry about TEDxChennai license being cancelled. To all those friends who ask me what went wrong... I was not part of the event conducted this year despite being an active volunteer for the first two editions. I have my personal opinions and reasons for not taking an active role this year and I don't want to comment on them.

There might have been gross violations... honest mistakes... profiteering... But as long as those who attended the event got their money's worth and some of them went back inspired enough to change the world... I am happy. Period.
