But risk aversion does not work for the entrepreneur/inventor since you advance only by exploring new possibilities.

2.  Exploring new frontiers.  Reconsider some older techniques like nuclear energy just one risky alternative. In future offerings I will mention the problems that keep me awake. We ignore them at our peril.
