𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐞 𝐌𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐄𝐥𝐤𝐨. Calling part of the Aggie family a "cesspool" disrespects the honor and integrity of every Aggie past and present. We take responsibility for our actions. It’s time to introduce Mr. Elko to the accountability part. #GigEm #Aggies #SEC #CFB

The inclination to conclude that a startup has, "...a solution looking for a problem" may be oversight of an abstract platform addressing a class of related problems. Double-check, I've seen good innovation overlooked from snap judgments.
Don't skip the part about no marketing, no commitments, no credit card...if you want more, it's there and we trust you'll let us know.
