The headmaster of Clown College was in attendance. He wasn't very happy with Vern's attorney.

Ok EMs lawyers will now be able to ask leading questions on cross. This is a large advantage in telling a story to the jury. If your client forgets something your question can be used to remind him. Sorry for the "trade talk".

Just what we need with the new emissions record in 2019. +0.6% YOY to the prior record of 2018.

I only look at the negative reviews.

Sad reality. What if we had to judge the quality of Teslas solely from TSLAQ reviews?

Difficult to say whether this secretary is an improvement or not. The last one wanted to shutdown the Energy department in 2012 campaign, along with 2 others. But he could only remember 1 - which ended his campaign.

I actually liked more the suggestion from someone on Twitter to Elon - buy Fox News and delete it.

Well, Christmas is just around the corner and I'm sure there are some naughty boys and girls out there...

I'm confused. Why would you need to stop every 100 to 150 miles if you have even 1000 miles of range? In our gas car, we typically drive 250 to 325 miles between stops. 95% of people who travel don't stop every 150 miles. That's only 2 hours of driving. Well, at least in the U.S.

I'm not sure how true this is (nearly everyone driving for many hours between stops), despite many seeming to claim it to be true.

Especially if you have children in the car, you're going to need to stop every couple of hours anyways. It's also unhealthy to go for such lengths of time as well as more likely to lead to accidents from fatigue / lack of alertness. It seems likely that more than 5% of road trips include children or elderly who may need more frequent breaks...

I can't seem to find any statistics on this one way or the other at all though (just getting pages of travel guides and trip planning guides etc).

Reuters - this afternoon: U.S. has not ruled out imposing tariffs on imported autos: Commerce chief

Interesting. This could of course be good for Tesla if every imported EV gets slapped with a tariff, at which point the advantage of the competing imported EVs having the $7,500k federal EV credit is diminished, negated totally if tariff is higher than $7.5k. Needless to say the price advantage over imported non-EVs also grows.

Unsworth's lawyer will now have to convince the jury that Unsworth's insult was not literal, while Elon's was.

The problem is, all of Elon's subsequent tweets and emails to Buzzfeed negates his claim that it was not said in literal sense.

The problem is, all of Elon's subsequent tweets and emails to Buzzfeed negates his claim that it was not said in literal sense.

Remember that Elon was fed false information from Unswroth’s lawyer, which the judge has allowed Elon to use as evidence against the plaintiff.

Except for when the EU slaps Retaliatory tariffs on Cars imported from the US.
