Where the Zuckerbergs Grow

I’ve never e-mailed you guys before, but I have to say thanks for one of the best covers I’ve seen in the three years that I’ve subscribed to your magazine, and you have a lot of good ones (“Silicon Valley State of Mind,” Features, August 11-August 24, 2014). You nailed the tech entrepreneur stereotype (at least in my mind) to a T that everyone including myself loves to hate. It’s like one part Mark Zuckerberg, one part Mark Pincus, and a dash of Reid Hoffman.

Lauren Sandler’s “How to Love Paid Family Leave” (Opening Remarks, July 21-July 27) warrants a response. The National Restaurant Association has not been one of the most vocal groups lobbying against a federal family leave proposal, as depicted in her article. In fact, we have not taken a position on the legislation at all.
