Loyan – wow, thx for the great haiku – you are a natural! Also, great job with the video. Gotta tell you that it is always a bit unusual to watch yourself on video. I’ve been telling Chris, Matt, and everyone else from SpeakerLunch in Corvallis that I really loved the entrepreneurial energy in the room – thx again for doing this!
