... trillions of dollars on the sidelines waiting to invest in companies... true, but they aren't investing yet.
I have to believe that CC has weighed his options carefully based on the people already knocking on the door, current economics, current stage of the company etc...etc... I have found him to be a very pragmatic and shrewd business man so I trust he's made a well thought out calculated decision on this one.
There will be a much better time to participate in this kind of conference later in 2009 (if required).
