Hopefully Martin will post his slides after the talk. Interesting slip about the company being headquarted in Southern California. Unless Elon has decided to move the company closer to home......:wink:

Good to see Martin getting all these speaking engagements helping to get more people on the electric vehicle bandwagon.
