Totally. And this is why I think all this "move to the suburbs" business is overblown.

Physical proximity still matters a hell of a lot. Especially on the margins when making something 1% easier is the difference between doing and not doing something.

Ironically pg is the guy who said the real world is really high bandwidth (Cities and Ambition) and that going where you have an audience is important. I share your frustrations about it being difficult to get to people to pitch them. Doubly when you aren't chasing an audience that spends all day in front of a screen.
