Tech Dreams


Elon Musk spins many high-tech dreams almost on a daily basis. Colonizing Mars. Hyperloop transports. Underground highways. Electric autonomous vehicles. Satellite launching. Solar cells. Commercial building electricity storage and retrieval, Virtual reality. Flame throwing gun. Totally green economy. And, I'm sure, more to come ... next time the Tesla Model 3 production schedule slips.

These chimeras (and our utopian mindset) have made him a many-times-over billionaire. Is this good and will his idiosyncratic dreams prevail? Who am I to judge? My dreams upto now have turned to cottage cheese. So I must demur.
