<p>I feel it is fair to say the following.</p>
<p>1) if Cornell hadn’t partnered with Technion, Stanford had won.</p>
<p>2) if Stanford had been as cooperative as Cornell/Technion in the final negotiations, by signing off some of the conditions that NYC wanted, Stanford had won.</p>
<p>3) To some degree, at the end, Stanford and NYC are both losers. </p>
<p>I would love to see Stanford come to NYC to help the high tech on the east coast. Currently, the east coast falls behind California in high tech. I wish Cornell + Technion will help the east coast to close the gap.</p>
