MY BRAIN: “Seems like a good time to REHASH EVERYTHING YOU SAID IN YOUR INTERVIEWS TODAY!”

Wow… We’re now at 5 full interviews in process or pending. I’ll finish up with two start-ups this week, start discussions with one or two start-ups this week, and start the loops with three very large corporations (VLCs) Friday.
