Uber Entrepreneur: An Evening with Elon Musk

[anarchosolar]

THERE IS A HIGHER DENSITY...the PANASONIC NiMH that is prohibited by the CHEVRON OIL PATENT. If the Panasonic battery is outdated and useless then why does the CHEVRON OIL PATENT so ruthlessly deny it to the world ?!

The Bloom Bax will work in a Tesla. I think a 'small' Bloom box will work N a all electric car!! The car would get 4 times the mileage then the batteries currently used. If they can get the Bloom Box down 2 lets say $5-800.00 4a car,, it would help the us all. As well as lower the price of The Tesla. I also feel The Bloom Box can work in harmony with your solar technology. Super Cool Stuff!! I know you can make it happen Elon,, So check it out!! Citizen Angel l l : l l

It doesn't take a genius to be a bankruptcy fraud expert, or an internet philanthropist, just training in criminality by criminals, the draft dodger, trained in toronto is smart like a sack of rocks---people who believe his P R Crap are idiots

[Maplesyrup41]

He says actually a lot of times but otherwise dude is a GENIUS

[lwcassid]

lol, so after blowing everyones mind's with brilliance they throw him a freaking T shirt! YES

[ChurchillClub]

@lwcassid It's a Churchill Club tradition :) We're a non-profit forum, and while it's a small gesture, it's close to our hearts!

[lassiecox]

elon musk is a bankruptcy expert, a hostile take over expert with a little cash he got for chuming up with the guys who developed zip 2, or paypal, he is barry soretoe alias barack hussain muhammed obamas, pet chicken, and has a longevity factor about as long as barry, which is coming to an end soon. The sooner the better, as all the people he trashes away along the way, as he steals their ideas and companies, will be pleased to see his eventual termination.

[ReservedSpotlight]

This is a great video!

[lassiecox]

yep 185 miles high followed by a splashdown with a payload of cheese, What part about 60's spacex generation does this not reaccomplish, paid for by barry soretoe, alias barrack hussain obama

[mrplease66]

@lassiecox oh Lassie, on every vid I watch I see some raving comment of your's against this guy. Are you by any chance his ex-wife?

[trats20050]

WOW!! This guy is amazing..

If we had ten more people like him in the world, what a world it would be.

[snowblind8998]

i saw a video of elon giving meg whitman a dirty sanchez....hot

[mashdenny]

Proudly South African

[lassiecox]

bankruptcy experts start with hostile takeovers, removing the designers and original owners, they bleed the company and investors until their end, many last for decades, bilking the government, the NYSE, private investors, and all who come into contact with them, Elon fits the profile, from the first, and now is playing the cashflow short game,min the never ending rabbithole of disappearing cash

[psyclistic]

Man, I'm surprised "über" is still used as a descriptor after "übermensch" was used by der Führer.

[mrplease66]

@psyclistic ubermensch means superman. Should he be given a more pc name now that he's turned out to be jew-hating alien?

[psyclistic]

@mrplease66 Ich verstehe Deutsch. Ich verstehe auch, daß Hitler "übermensch" oft gesagt hat.  I'm just saying the connotations are bad.

[mrplease66]

@psyclistic Na, dann verstehen wir uns ja! my point is that the prefix Uber is of common usage in the English language since long before A.H. used it in a very specific and particular context. You can go to an Uber-party, or carry an Uber-penis, or hear an Uber-song without there being even the slightest association to anything German/Nazi related.

Gleichschaltung, however, IS a 'Nazi' term, and yet also of completely common usage in political theory the world over.

[haxtor21]

you gotta hand it to the guy for his intellect and luck. I think he was very lucky that he started doing business right before the internet bubble started... which ultimately made him a huge chunk of money so he could peruse his dreams... im currently in the same process and have his aspirations towards space.

[BOWENSblog]

this guy is actually broke now. he used all his cash lol.

Jeff Bezos and Richard Branson are smarter business men.

Elon musk isnt even a billionaire... overrated guna get him self hurt. Tesla will hurt him alot of he doesnt IPO it.

[plebshadowofra]

@BOWENSblog Pay for performance NASA COTS will begin yielding dividends now that Falcon & Dragon are achieving promised objectives. Trolls can say what they like, men like Musk can lose it all and bounce back. BS + BA, CEO, CTA experience, automotive + aerospace + solar power engineering, powerful business contacts, 100 hour work weeks....... this is not someone floating by on "luck" or "overrated" or about to get "hurt". Look closer.

[trats20050]

@BOWENSblog

After Wednesday launch do you still think hes broke?

[danger0usknowledge]

This interviewer actually has some brains & needless to say the interviewee

has more than enough cells to power a Tesla car.

[ashman012012]

yah i counted right away as well and noticed 13. But yah very clever.

[Herbalifetips1]

Clever guy but Churchill Club is 13 letters...

[Idiomatick]

@Herbalifetips1 Elon Musk is an engineer, they start counting from 0

[dsjaggers]

Thank you for pointing that out, but I saw him say that we had production electric cars on David Letterman's show not too long ago. Not only that but he points out that GM killed it's own electric car program and had all of the cars crushed even though the test drivers loved the cars. Elon said that the cars' drivers actually held a vigil for the lost cars! Now, sadly and maybe deservedly, GM could be headed to the scrap bin. Nearsighted, a lazy bureaucracy, and/or crooked?

[GBS1043]

Elon is incorrect about the model S being the first mass produced electric car. The Baker Electric was the first, in 1912. It had a top speed of 30 mph and a range of between twenty and thirty miles between charges.. That's correct, 100 years ago there were electric cars people..Thank your local oil company (and crooked auto manufacturer) for killing the electric car 100 years ago. Don't take my word for any of this.. Check it out yourself.

[jibailublabla]

it's plausible for ur knowledge on EV's history, but don't you think you are over sensitive on ppl talking? wat if the word "FIRST mass produced EV" is referring to century now? wat if the word "mass produced EV" is reffering to an enormous quantity that ever produced which overcome the quantity on Baker Electric in 1912, such words pointed out would not make you smarter than Elon. I just dun like catching keywords.

[GBS1043]

WTF did you just say? My point, if you had taken the time to read about any of this, is that the Baker Electric was the first mass produced electric vehicle, not the Tesla roadster or S sedan. PERIOD. I simply pointed out that Mr. Musk was incorrect when he made the statement that Tesla was first.

I don't know what your idiotic diatribe is about.

[AnotherSceptic]

Well done Saffers !

[KermitVonSchnitzel]

This guy is cool. I love it that he laughs, hes a breath of fresh air!

[BrontesMuse]

This guy is impressive.

[DanFrederiksen]

he does some good but so did Bush..

Elon is unfortunately far from the good guy he likes to play for those that don't know any better. he ousted Martin Eberhard who started Tesla Motors and now pretends he started it and other related lies. he sued Fisker frivolously to trip them up out of childish jealousy. it's interesting to see how composite humans can be, being on the one hand talented and accomplished but on the other childishly petty and deceitful. don't count on him for space or EV

[kimae247]

i love you elon!

[Pellionisz]

To my question "why did you name your car Tesla" you mentioned that another thought was to call if "Faraday". I am very happy with your choice of the underrated genius Nicole Tesla - otherwise for some might be easy to crack to joke at your car "it does not go very Far A Day"....

[omgitzsteg]

NikolA :)
