I spent the last few days about 6 hours south of Chicago in Carbondale, Illinois. It is where Southern Illinois University as well as a heck of alot of reseach. I spoke at a Business Bootcamp and an Angel Seminar. On Tuesday evening, The Southern Illinois Entrepreneurship Center sponsored a large reception at the Stone Center for my book. Their hospitality could not have been finer! I met entrepreneurs making everything from baseball bats to clean energy products!
