"Is it afternoon already? I'm afraid I don't have a good sense of time." You're telling me that "she" didn't know what time it was?

Wow. Very nice changes since v1! I STILL think you need to pare down the amount of text on your page. Underneath the two highlighted sections, the only text should be "How it Works". The Provider Identity Authentication section was confusin

Nah. I didn't like it when this site opened up to topics other than startups because I thought we'd get a bunch of crap posts. The vast majority has been quality however, so I don't see any compelling reason to change anything.
