  Werner Erhard
John Paul Rosenberg (born September 5, 1935 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) adopted the name of "Werner Hans Erhard" in 1960 while in the process of leaving his wife and four children and moving to California with his lover, June Bryde.
After allegations of domestic violence, sex with family members and tax-payment disputes, Rosenberg sold WEA, allegedly claiming persecution by the Church of Scientology, and left the United States for Russia, Ireland, Costa Rica, the Cayman Islands, Mexico, and other places abroad.

 Werner Erhard Page at Working Minds
When Werner filed for incorporation, the state bureaucrats refused on the basis of an obscure rule that did not permit corporate names to be in a foreign language.
Werner's on-the-spot solution was to state that 'est' stood for 'Erhard Seminars Training'; the bureaucrats were satisfied, and that expansion of the company's name was seldom used officially.
Around the same time, Werner left the United States, partly because of threats on his life and partly because his direct participation with the company was no longer necessary.

 Metroactive Features | Landmark Education
I've come in suspicious of Landmark because I know it's the direct descendant of Erhard Seminar Training (est), an acronym of lower-case initials that imparted contemporary chic a generation ago, and which flourished during the '70s and '80s as a hard-edged, confrontational seminar in the heyday of the human potential movement.
Werner Erhard and his cohorts coasted on est's enormous success until they reduced their last estie to tears in 1984.
Erhard's 63 now and is assured 50 percent of Landmark's net pre-tax profit each quarter, not to exceed $15 million in the 18-year lifespan of the license.

 The R. Buckminster Fuller FAQ: Miscellany
Around 1980, Werner Erhard rediscovered Fuller and found Fuller's lifelong commitments (to serve ``omnihumanity'') were illustrative of his own ``making the world work for everyone'' motto.
Asked what Fuller thought of Erhard on the Larry King show, Fuller said he thought he was ``a good boy'' or something to that effect (contrary to Erhard's own assertions that he was ``bad'' -- in the Michael Jackson sense perhaps).
Erhard helped found the organization and Fuller was on the Board (of Advisors or Directors I'm not sure).
