Musk has already changed it.

And electric cars.

And on-line payments.

It's hard to argue with success.

Perfume will do far more for rocketry than anonymous posters will ever do for CR4.

That may be mostly correct, but not always.

I greatly admire men and women with a "I'll show you" kind of mentality.

"People who say something can't be done should never stand in the way of the person getting it done."

Elon Musk is one of those people who are visionary, willing to risk their resources for the sake of potential payback. That is one of the things great about free enterprise and capitalism. People can benefit from their entrepreneurial spirit. The key is keeping the beauracrats in government out of their way.
