The jobs numbers that were released by the Labor Department this morning are a reminder that the road to recovery is neverstraight, and that we have to continue to work every single day to get our economy moving again.
The story of poor-girl-makes-good was never quite straight, the fame never without its tawdry side, the money never reliably there, the behaviour rarely unembarrassing.
Whatever one wants to make of IV, the fact is that IV is the pioneer in creating an invention market and like all pioneering efforts, the path is never a straight line or easy.
