It is the over generalization that hurts you. Look at Rule #4 VC are morons. But let's look at #6 as you say. You say "There are no rules" but then back that up with "Its fear and greed and desire and comfort and popularity" which is my point. You are not hyping and I didn't mean to imply that. It's when people write their experiences as fact instead of opinion, and then someone replies saying that is BS and gives their own opinion as fatct, that then become ridiculous. Of course the is only IMHO :-)
