Well, judging by what I keep hearing about who gets funded,I would say she stands a good chance. The reason I say this is because I keep hearing that investors invest in people, not ideas.

Even though most of us believe her idea is absurd, I bet, like me, everyone watched the whole presentation. And that's impressive.
