A somewhat better URL, a primary source

http://jalopnik.com/5935362/elon-musk-pledges-to-support-nik...

(note Inman's "pledge drive" letter is classic Inman and amusing to read as usual)

That URL refers to Inman's first pledge drive, for $800k, to save the site. Musk donated $2500 and Inman raised almost $1.4m.

Inman is now asking Musk directly for $8m, to build a museum. The only primary source is this tweet - https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/466518346574626817 - which simply says "I would be happy to help."

That's from 2012. This was a new plea for another $8MM USD.
