It's working now. :D
Great show, especially the segment on the Tesla. More people need to find out about that car, it seems like geeks are the only ones aware of it at the moment. I was also glad to see that they're finally moving forward on the live action version of Akira (after years of rumors). I really don't want to see DiCaprio in it, but I guess that's better than nothing. lol

That car was sick -- soo beautiful, which is great compared to the designs that are out there right now for hybrids. Elon is just an amazingly intelligent and forward-thinking person... really love the stuff he's doing with Space X too.

agreed about the car and akira. I can't stand though how long it is taking the U.S. to adopt a technology that has existed since 1937 or earlier.
Looking forward to Akira but not DiCrapio. Someone else should have helmed it and I am willing to wait longer to have it switch hands. To be so smug as to cast yourself just because your own production is taking it on is arrogant to me.
Now if they could only bring Voltron to fruition and do it right NOT ala power rangers style.

I blame oil companies. See "Who Killed the Electric Car"
In any event, that car looks so awesome, airwolf even. I wish there was a cheaper version!
Do want! (so very much)
