Again sounds interesting and (not necessarily in a negative way) kinda puts me in the mind of a process server/courier could be useful I'll keep it in mind

My initial thought was seems like a useful product, my second thought was legal documents seem like the kind of thing that almost always require a manual overview to make sure everything is in order.
So my question would be something along the line of how do you address this seemingly unavoidable necessity?

"Success is its own reward" but then again I would guess that after your head kicked in for 50 minutes straight you start looking for reasons to explain why you did it ... by the way is this a locals only thing? Seems like it would be the most painfully fun thing ever

To a lot of the comments going with some variation of "His business aren't that successful and/or he is propped up by government contracts" I would say that it is really easy to look back in hindsight and say Tesla/SpaceX aren't a big deal but I think Tesla did for the electric car what the iPhone did for the smartphone. Also maybe it is just PR but I really see many other private companies launching/developing rockets.
As the public face of these companies that are so awesomely nerdy Elon Musk gets the public credit for their success just like he will take the blame for their possible failures.
