The TechCrunch comments on this are ridiculous.

Entrepreneurs are not people who come up with ideas; they are people who successfully execute ideas through further iteration and development.

There is an element of discovery in success; continually questioning the status quo (TechCrunch comments seem hung-up on this point).

I'm sure those who are chosen by YCombinator will be those who seem most capable of iteration and further creativity regardless of the origin of the idea.

Past that, the idea comes from one individual normally. It then takes a team to execute it and they share a passion for that idea. This is just like having PG on your team.

how true. the only thing common among entrepreneurs is their determination.
