The universities need to work with the city to foster innovation in areas like biotech and cleantech. Its happening. But not like MIT/Harvard or Stanford/Berkeley. Your observation is spot on

Depends on the category. In biotech and clean tech, absolutely. In web services, I doubt it

I'm a big fan of vaccines and all forms of prophylactic medicine. I've taken every vaccine out there and want my kids to do the same. I recognize that vaccines have some risk but I believe the risk/reward tradeoffs are almost always strongly in favor of vaccines

My kids took the swine flu vaccine as soon as it was available. I'm getting mine soon
