Seriously, though, "VC advocacy" is what, exactly? I see it take varying forms and degrees, and areas of emphasis. Saying that everyone who engages in "VC advocacy" is puffing themselves up to feel important is an unsubstantiated statement, and misleading.
Actually it's quite accurate in my experience. Are you proclaiming yourself a 'VC advocate', and thus an exception to my experience, LBM?. (FYI, I don't consider Steve G and others as 'vc advocates' because they represent cycling as a whole and don't let their egos and wacky theories get in the way of effective advocacy.)
