Thanks Google for giving me and others the chance to know and meet Gisel.

One heck of a person, a hard worker and a great mind. I beg to differ on the European attitudes though ("...There is a big issue in Europe; I think we are afraid of failure..."). Many European countries penalize the business owner personally if the business is a failure. If your company goes bust in France you personally get put on a banking black list for a number of years. It is hard to be fearless when you are betting with your home and your family's lives...
