Because we ran out of runway while bootstrapping, and the stress finally took out the founders (in rather dramatic fashion). It's not all lollipops and blowjobs out there--sometimes you just get dealt a bad hand. EDIT: Which isn't to say I hadn't tried before and wouldn't try again. It's just very easy in this bubble for people to ignore the visceral truth that starting a company is hard and that success is far from guaranteed.
