I can barely imagine the conversations between Andrew and Elon when they are looking ahead in time.

Only got part way through last night but a fascinating interview. I was happy to hear a return to Tesla might be in the offing as he brings a lot to the table and seems to have a good understanding of, and respect for Elon which is an essential element.
