Elon Musk might be the best CEO ever...
Looks like there might be a Nikola Tesla museum in the works... about dang time, too!
A while back, The Oatmeal ran a piece about Nikola Tesla. Recently, they ran a piece about Tesla Motors and their magical space-car. a darn good read. Be sure to read page 2...

Guess we'll see. I'm sort of surprised that Tesla Motors hadn't done it already.

I read that Oatmeal post last night. Pretty ballsy asking for a cool $8M for a museum, but it will all be PR for Tesla anyway.

The Oatmeal rocks - one of my very favorites (along with CGB Grey on YouTube).
Very cool for Elon must to pony up, (a bit surprised he did not already...) correction: a bit surprised it was only for $2,500 before.

Elon Musk is forging history every day he goes to work.
He's a truly incredible individual.
