Angels, you can't mail it in!
LeisureLink's Erik Hovanec tells these "old rich guys" that when it comes to working with startups, angels can't just mail it in. He doesn't need anyone to tell him there's a recession going on; instead he encourages angel investors to get involved in a long term supportive relationship.
Tech Coast Angels Dave Berkus and Richard Morganstern don't call him any names, but each of us has a few pearls of wisdom for the angels and the entrepreneurs navigating these raging economic waters.

Love all your recent interviews. Has David become your "sidekick" on the shows. He could be as he is a wonderful source of information and his voice carries it off oh so well.
Frank replies: I'm becoming Dave's PR agent!! He's got the great stories; he's been through it all!

Following the summit in Halifax I decided to start a blog on my website, www.mindfirst.com. Each entry will feature a photo and a paragraph or two about what I'm up to. Could you please send me the photo of you, David Berkus and I? I 'd like to mention your podcast to people and want the photo to help make the connection. Thanks.
