		<description><![CDATA[While the title of this post might harken some back to the days of the Grateful Dead, it is meant as a shout-out to William Quigley at Clearstone Ventures and his recent presentation about the revival of the venture capital industry (for certain types of funds).  If you haven&#8217;t seen it, see below.  Enjoy
