Suggestion for Upcoming Shareholder Meeting
The annual shareholder meeting is a little over three weeks away.
I've always found live Q&As between Elon and Tesla and/or TSLA owners very entertaining and often quite revealing. Of course, at times, many of us are left wishing those who had the opportunity to present a question had asked Elon something else we'd had in mind.
This winter, Elon did a Reddit "AMA," on SpaceX. Reddit has a voting system that moves a particular question posed toward the top or bottom of an open list depending on how many people like the question in relation to other ones. This format allowed us all to have some impact on which questions Elon choose to answer, even if the particular question we added to the list was not chosen.
So, my suggestion is that Tesla combine these two formats. Open the floor as usual to live questions to those who have made the effort to come to the meeting, but also have some questions chosen by a Reddit-like voting process that will more effectively represent what we are collectively interested in, and open the floor to those of us for whom showing up in the Bay area for the meeting is a bit more challenging (fwiw, I could see Tesla either creating a page on their website for this, or arranging something with Reddit). These two different sources of questions could be blended in whatever proportion Tesla wants to try out. The Reddit voting and selection of questions could be done before or during the meeting.
Any interest?
