In 1863, men across the country were aggressively driving spikes into the ground in a grand effort to produce the first transcontinental railroad system. When completed, it chiseled a place in history and changed our country forever. A hundred and fifty years later in Woodburn, OR, Tesla is driving their own kind of spike. Make no mistake. Tesla is making history right now before our eyes, and they will forever change how we navigate our roads. I'm deeply honored to be part of it. Tesla Motors has done an outstanding job assembling a team of professionals and have made installation of the infrastructure a very enjoyable experience. First of all I'd like to thank Tesla Motors, specifically Greg __ and Douglas ___ for choosing our parking lot. I'd like to personally thank Oregon General Electric, specifically Stan's sister, Rick ___, Dale ___. These chargers would not be here if it were not for them. The city of Woodburn simply could not be easier to work with. I am grateful. Frank and the Tesla Motors Club, thank you for photos and updates in my absence. You guys are great. Last but not least, if someone from Tesla could give Elon Musk a personal message from me -- tell him to get some sleep. This world and Mars cannot afford him to not be dreaming.
