Every blade of glass is a different shade of green

Hi, this is my second post on Hacker News, and I read it every week or so. My name is Emrah, and I'm a seasoned entrepreneur with complementary skills to a hacker (capturing user stories, figuring out human needs, UX, architecture, agile methods, merciless testing to break your code over and over again) and have access to lotsa money. I would like to co-found with 1-2 exceptional humans who can code, and dis-intermediate a large industry that will see tremendous demand thanks to baby boomers (thank you Drucker for making us rich, again).

I am an ex-introvert geek (I hacked my mind successfully to see the other side). So are many of my friends. But they are not here. I moved to San Francisco after riding 7 months around the country on a GS1200 (swam with sharks and got stranded on an island:). I don't know many people here in the industry (just one Stanford CS professor, who is a close friend). I'm looking for intelligent, imaginative, and brave engineers who have an appreciation for irony and distaste for blind status quo. I deeply respect Graham, DeMarco, Brooks, Weinberg and Spolsky. I applied what they wrote over and over to win with position+tempo+material (I think chess strategy dominates all business strategy).

So here's my question to the Hacker community, I am looking for some of you: intelligent, passionate, gets things done, and excited about making something people will like. Now, HOW would you meet and gently seduce YOU to build something great, if you were to ride into an American city where you don't know anybody?

Nice to meet you virtually:)

Make something people will like. All else follows.

PS: To switch from introvert to extrovert, especially to attract a mate, I found the first step is to let go of guilt/shame/regret etc. They all are exotic forms of self-torture. Smart people like exotic mental expressions to amuse themselves;)
