Sarah, I too am surprised that only 3 women VCs are blogging. Hopefully your analysis will encourage more to join the blogosphere!

I signed the petition Bijan. I agree with your logic on this one. Thanks for taking the charge.

You write a blog post about CIA-agent led training, and don't give us the details on the training? That would be very interesting. Good post nonetheless.

Ha ha - I know you wouldn't say anything bad about Fred. Was just wanting to see you dance around it.

So, is the principle that if you believe in something, like a portfolio company, then you can promote it since it's an authentic representation of how you really feel?

And, by virtue, if you really believe in yourself and your own intellect, you can freely and authentically promote yourself? :)

I think you've given now a free license to all VCs who surely all believe in themselves and believe in their portfolio companies. :)
