How on earth did this make it to trial? Is Kleiner Perkins crazy, or is Ellen Pao making a point?

  I agree, I am surprised they didn't quietly settle. The all male dinner party with Al Gore alone is pretty damning, in my opinion.

    Perhaps the tone-deafness that led to ignoring the original issues also applies to taking a lawsuit seriously.

  They were probably trying to play chicken with Ellen and hope that she would be scared off by having to testify about her relationships, etc. in a trial. However it seems like they played right into what she wants and now all their dirty laundry is being aired in public.
