I’m a huge fan of William and his writing as you can see from my review of his book Avogadro Corp. I’m going to start by going back to 1994.

When I first started investing as an angel investor in 1994, I was focused on a very simple set of criteria. I’ve been interested in private company data since I started Feld Technologies in 1987. He looked at me and gave me that “yeah – we should do this” look. And that was it. And that was that.
