Anyone happen to know if Randy Lewis is the weasel that Kim is talking about here? Sure sounds like him.

Although, we would have him to thank for making it possible for us to invest.

…At that time the concept (transgenic silkworms) was so radical that traditional financing, including VC funding, was impossible. "I attended numerous meetings with VC's who would tell me that the concept was scientifically impossible. They would all quote the top scientist in the field who had created a list of five reasons why it just could not be done". Ultimately, Kim used his own money, with modest financial support from friends, to launch Kraig Biocraft Laboratories (KBLB). Approximately two years following that meager financing, the new company publicly announced the creation of the first transgenic silkworm producing recombinant spider silk. "Suddenly we had achieved what everyone said was impossible. Even the supposed expert in the field, whose public views had blocked us from finance, was eventually convinced by the power of the technology and switched over to using of silkworm in his laboratory.”
