Ask HN: how to find angels/early investors in NYC?

I've worked at an early stage startups in Silicon Valley my entire working life, except for my current job which is with a more established "startup" in NYC. I greatly prefer being someone with a say in the technical direction of the company to being just another programmer. Thus, I've been interviewing with a number of early stage companies in New York.

After every interview, I've thought something like: "Wow these guys are cool guys, but clueless... This idea isn't even that great, and WTF, is that really a boilerplate Rails app? If these guys got funding for this, I should be able to get funding for one of my ideas, too."

So... my question is, who do I talk to in the New York area? Are there guys I can show a demo to and get a YC-sized investment? I know the obvious VCs in the area, and I know who the angels are in the Bay Area, but don't know who the angels are in New York.
