-"Q. “Reality Check” includes a venture capital aptitude test in which you opine on the types of people who are best qualified for careers in venture capital. Your test awards points to those with backgrounds in sales or engineering and subtracts points for those with M.B.A. degrees or backgrounds in management consulting, investment banking or accounting. What’s behind this philosophy?"
-"To close the interview, I asked Mr. Kawasaki to come up with a final question he’d like to answer:
Q. What would you like people to say about you when you die?"
Seriously?

Any chance we can get nytimes articles posted as a comment so we don't have to bother with BugMeNot every time?
Another option would be to use the RSS partner HTTP attribute, if it works on every article.

The more I meet with entrepreneurs the less I think I can pick them. Sure, there are stereotypes: bright, aggressive, enthusiastic, young, etc. But there are many successful entrepreneurs that don’t come off this way.
The richest vein I have seen is two guys/gals who want to create a tool that they themselves want to use. This describes, for example, Google, Yahoo and Apple. I have come to believe that almost everyone has the entrepreneurial gene — it’s been necessary for survival for thousands of years.
