Cool, I'm familiar with Gabe and salute his efforts. The city badly needs him/them. I was born in the city and went to college there so I hope it can become greater than what it is. The main thing, imho, that needs to happen, is to get the word out amongst college-aged people in the area and the attraction of more venture funding. The general attitude of the people there is what pg refers to in one of his essay's as the 'default'; graduate and work in a large corporation. This formula is not working anymore and the startup attitude needs to affect Philly and the rest of the country proportionally to the new state of affairs.
