I had a stealth trip to the Tenderloin of San Francisco yesterday to show off a prototype CFRP product we are developing. I got lots of tips on how to improve it, and a lesson that the Bay Area VC types are not interested in providing six figures of funding, as that is chicken feed for them. I knew that!
What haunts me about the west, urban/rural, is that the homeless are everywhere. On the East Coast they seem visible only in the big cities.
Homelessness is not even an issue in this election cycle. I think, perhaps, something is wrong with that.
