Elon Musk has already demonstrated that he's much shrewder about business ownership than D. D. Harriman.

thank God, though, right? i mean... we like Musk. he might be a little nuts, but at least his vision seems to include a bit of conservation of resources.

I'm just thinking Musk won't get forced out of his own space company and die on the Moon the way Harriman did.

Musk wants to die on Mars, anyway.

as i said, he might be a little nuts. but i agree they're unlikely to try to take over and get rid of him.

Harriman is an interesting name, because Edward H. Harriman was the baron of the Union Pacific RR.
