I don't know Variety's foray will change that attitude, but I hope it does. The attitude down here seems to be: be closed with who you know, and just drop names like mad and make people beg you for a connection. Very different in SF or with the younger LA crowd who realize being maximally open is the best tack. Be a connector!
