Launching valleylist has a odd “Pirandello-esque” experience associated with each and every key stroke as well as the total lack of anything comparable on the internet or in print I find myself inspired by the endless newscasts on CNN that sum up an entire day in just a 27 second newsblast as opposed to why not take 2,000 words and 95,000 letters to say that nothing really is happening except if it were not for getting a “jay walking” ticket from the police department, then I would not have anything to say, he said. Samuel Beckett anybody? I can’t really read because I watch too much CNN lately, however we are going to do it anyway says Lou Dobbs, of CNN. Spent most of the week in Patricia Mahans Mayoral conquest Santa Clara, just up the creek from San Jose, only to find that nobody else wanted to finish my newsletter yet the “walk away before anything works – - ” crowd continues to try to make everything impossible until, yet again, it’s a do it yourself solution called, just go ahead and do it yourself.
> valleylist – - the newsletter
This is a weekly newsletter about high tech products companies and consumers I’m leading the pack to a new internet service – - main index looks like this:

> valleylist – - the conclusion subscribe and sponsor !
Conclusion is that the sponsorships and new business development involvement may have remained at an all time low during the first three weeks of prototyping the new service, however I am going to avoid the deliberate “wrong answer” tactic much proselytized by my odd co-workers at a big company in San Francisco honchoed by former co-workers now doing a government contract on how to eliminate people. Better get those business proposals to me as quickly as possible at g_mcpaul@yahoo.com this week.
