Is it just me or is there something very odd about the video presentation? Phil Bosua uses just about every trick in the NLP book to persuade and cajole. Even though the project is almost certainly impossible to deliver, I ended up wanting to believe it and thinking that if I did contribute, I would be making something amazing happen. I almost felt like I was being hypnotised.

If they can deliver what they say with $100,000 then the fact that they now have 10x that probably means you don;t need to contribute to see the benefit.

Mea culpa.
