Incredible rip-off of YC. However, it doesn't look like too bad a deal...

They sound like "Mr. Skipper" to YC's "Dr. Pepper". I like to drink rootbeer... not sure what that signifies.

I've had the misfortune of trying Dr Becker and Dr Perky.

Maybe, as in soda, when it comes to early-stage funding you can't beat the original?
