I really appreciate people who see the way the world could go and leads it, even if the world isn't ready. I suspect he's not an innovator for purely humanitarian reasons, Elon just gets that our needs are changing, like the online PayPal needs and the needs for alternative powered vehicles. He's articulate, innovative, assertive, and rather cute (though I'm not big on baby-faced guys). I'm admittedly curious what he will come up with next... a Bigfoot trap? a car engine that turns off if someone uses their cell phone inside? Hmmm.....
