The Man in the Iron Musk. I said that to you once long ago. Since then, puns have begun to dissolve for me. However, also since then, my sense of self-congratulation has begun to drip up.

I'd like to read this book. But I think I enjoy you reading my thoughts slightly more. I'm not a Musk fan, frankly, the man makes me a little ill. It is interesting though, like a butterfly made of roadkill.

He appears to be expert minded. Maybe a little Zappaesque, but instead of air, he warps people.

"A technocrat is a guy who goes around forcing his will on unsuspecting human molecules, often with the assistance of unsuspecting eggheads."

The book does a great job of connecting the dots. I just finished it, will post a review shortly.

What is really scary about Musk is that in a way he's a kind of tragic antihero. Sort of the way Milton would have portrayed Satan in Paradise Lost if he'd been writing the screenplay for a Transformers movie instead of an epic poem.
