One of my favorite signs on the old defense secretary of Romansville. He had a sign on his desk and it said if nobody is angry you, you might not be doing much. You know, you do you subscribe to that? Oh, totally.

Actually, it's a good question. People don't ask. So Palencer, we had a whole playbook when we started that, you know, Paler hired a lot of the top talent. And so you'd have your fellows, you'd have your spies, you have your advisers... you just have people who are young, smart, technical people who are social and they're there and they're mapping it out. They're helping you meet the right people.

It became really obvious to us that Silicon Valley, Google, PayPal, all these things that were going on out there were just way ahead technically of where the government was at that point. This was a problem because the government was spending $38 billion a year gathering data, looking at the data, failing to stop the terrorists but also abusing our civil liberties.

We got turned down by everyone. Turned down by Excel, by Sequoia. The guy at Kleiner Perkins at the time... they're laughing us out of the room basically. All the investors were telling us you guys are crazy. No one does this. Why are you doing this? It's not possible.

Turned down by Excel, by Sequoia. The guy at Kleiner Perkins at the time and they're a great firm. I admire them very much. But the guy at the time who's no longer there, he started laughing at us on the phone cuz Alex didn't have a technical degree.

More importantly we saved the government billions of dollars versus what they were doing. I mean you literally had things going on the DHS guys. Cuz I remember there was some Unicist thing where it was like $3 billion to integrate all the data and we came and we showed them we could have done the same thing for them out of the box in a month.
