Heh, that's one very cool way of showing the way YC is changing the way things are done. You couldn't have picked a more original way of doing this.

It was fun seeing the reaction from the founders as they heard the terms of the deal.

Was little more subdued than I expected. It could be just a reflection of the nature of tech hacker types but slightly surprised to see no fist pumping or much robust cheering; more polite applause to slightly louder polite applause?

As if the announced funding wasn't enough, by using an Anybot to do it, Yuri is my personal superhero.

This almost brings tears to my eyes. We have come a long way friends. Congrats to the new YC batch.
