And so far in front of any competition, including the .gov of the US, it's not funny.
Elon scares me a little. He appears relatively harmless now, but I’m afraid he may end up having a nefarious agenda like Gates. 
I am still trying to convince him to look at hydrogen powered vehicles. I hear they are doing great overseas and just might be what is needed to save us from the greenie weenies. .

The problem with hydrogen is one of storage and transport. It's just too slippery a molecule and leaks like crazy due to its size.

Nukes would be perfect, but the greenies would have a epileptic fit.
