Yes" by Zenas Hutcheson, St. Paul Venture Capital Network World, 06/07/04 http://www.nwfusion.com/columnists/2004/0607faceoffyes.html On a related note, they also have an article arguing the contrary position (see link within article). I'm too busy right now to write up a response showing the flaws in that column but others on the list might wish to contribute to the fray. George Paja...
