Yes but Elizabeth wore the Steve Jobs black turtleneck and jeans while she lied, so she must've been...

r̶e̶l̶a̶t̶e̶d̶ ̶t̶o̶ ̶h̶i̶m̶?̶

b̶r̶i̶l̶l̶i̶a̶n̶t̶

so confident that the VC community was a bunch of suckers that she'd be able to lie for the next 50 years of her life without solving anything?

Thank goodness she was wrong on the timescale by more than an order of magnitude, but just a cursory grasp of how big Quest Diagnostics is and all of the market incentives they have to develop the product themselves made me immediately skeptical of Theranos.

I know you guys are doing something totally different, and I'm genuinely sorry, because the odds are that some conjob cost you at least one legitjob.

P.S. someday the chumps in my field at U-Mich will host a conference, and I'll bother you.
