Yuck. The whole “don’t contact us please, we and our friends are very busy with other things that come before your charitable needs”. So gross. You’re right that it’s too late for all this now. I saw a few comments on one of SV’s posts a couple of weeks ago from someone asking very politely about timelines because if people weren’t going to be “chosen” than they’d need time to make other plans. And SV was very nicey nicey and obsequious about it. Whoever that was could obviously tell where this was going...
