		<description>Rob,

Let&#039;s be honest.  It&#039;s all about raising the hairs on the back of the VC&#039;s neck.  Who knows in advance what will do it?  But ultimately, that&#039;s the differentiator.  Your resume, combined with everything else, might tip the balance for an investor in the other startup.  Your Daily Idea cameo might.  Who knows in advance?  It&#039;s like dating.  Keep at it and refine your target audience and you&#039;ll get there.
