  1.  @blahzndef  Haha.....no. It's probably more accurate to think of Musk as a Thomas Edison. Big ideas, and then hiring other people to figure out how to make them work, but happy to take the credit.

  2. Here's how I believe it went down: The major shareholders of Tesla gave Musk an ultimatum - you can be CEO of Twit, or your can be CEO of Tesla, but not both. With all of its recent financial troubles, Tesla can scarcely afford a part-time dilettante CEO right now, who is also alienating potential Tesla customers with his Twit troll antics. So, Musk creates a Twit poll, with a fairly predictable outcome, to create the illusion that he's leaving it up to the Twitverse to decide his fate. And that gives him the cover story he needs to bow out of Twit, with some face saved.
