Instead of another boring lecture, last week my students at UC-Berkeley

coming from Berkeley; after the discussion was posted on TechCrunch, students at Duke asked me to discuss this at a keynote I am giving at their entrepreneurship symposium
on Wednesday; and students at other schools, from as far as India and
Singapore, have asked for advice. So I’ll just respond here in the hope
of quenching this fire.
