The Business: The Recovered Lore Of The Real Hobby Approaches Critical Mass Adoption

This man is not one of the Bros. He's familiar with the Bros. He's heard the arguments. He's read the arguments. He's seen the receipts showing their effectiveness in practice.

Conventional Play needs both, and will lose both, when SOBS' Big Move takes the 80% and 18 of the remaining 20% go to the Clubhouse. 2%--and I am being very generous--is not enough, unless they're all Saudi oil princes (and we know that they are not).

Tick. Tock.
