Prometheus 6

Quote of note:

Yet, the looming question is what the 68-year-old Mr. Powell, who served in the military for 35 years and rose to the rank of four-star general, can offer a venture capital firm that specializes in the financing of biotechnology start-ups and technology companies like Google and Netscape Communications, to name two of its more successful investments.

Seriously...it's like an insurance company hiring a ex-football star.

Mr. Powell has successfully ascended to Brahmin class. I'm impressed.
