    Whoever invested in this company has not done due diligence.

    I think pressure has gotten to Elon. He needs a vacation.

    I'm an old fart and I've smoked plenty of weed. But I'll be damned if I'd be stupid enough to smoke it on national TV. What he does in private is one thing but to raise the ire of a large portion of the population when you're trying to sell cars is just plain stupid. If I were a large investor I'd kick him out tomorrow.

    He is a billionaire and he needs to mix tobacco with his weed???!!! He should have used a ornately crafted pipe and dropped shots of Hennessy. The guy could buy the industry in Colorado if he wanted to.

    Lanny, He is going to Mars on one of his space crafts. He doesn't mind. Actually, his company should give out an ounce with every self driving robot car purchase.

    Really? Elon Musk is brilliant.

    Smoking weed doesn't make you a bad person.

    That's that Jeff Sessions rhetoric.

    It's the car business, so bait and switch is all possible. An ash tray of used Musk roaches is probably what the consumer will get.

    I never even implied that it made you a bad person.
    I intended that it was poor judgement in that a lot of potential customers might not buy Teslas because of his very open smoking of weed.

    Good grief, I smoked weed. An awful lot of the brilliant people who have worked on microprocessor design at Intel smoked weed with me in college. One buddy went on to do major design work at Advanced Micro Devices even smoked weed with me.

    I haven't smoked any weed now in something like a few decadws )40 years?). But that's only for my reasons and I don't impress them on anyone else.

    was gonna say a pound at min!


    Also:
    ELON MUSK: Tesla’s gotten to where it’s gotten with no advertising at all… sells twice as much in terms of electric vehicles, more than all the carmakers in the United States combined. Tesla’s done more to help the environment than all other companies combined. It would be fair to say that as the leader of the company, I’ve done more for the environment than any single human on earth.

    ANDREW ROSS SORKIN: How do you feel about that?

    MUSK: How do I feel about that?

    SORKIN: No, I’m asking you personally how you feel about that, because we are talking about power and influence —

    MUSK: I’m saying what I care about is the reality of goodness, not the perception of it. And what I see all over the place is people who care about looking good while doing evil. F*** them.
