Heh, I might have misparsed "'No PG' is a big drawback" as "No, PG is a big drawback"... :P Disregard my previous post.

(no pg) = (big drawback)

I live near philly and there's always "brain drain" talk (aka how can we keep wharton grads in the city?) It looks like a lot of their speakers and mentors are in finance/accounting. So whatever they say, I think this project is not really about software startups.
