Elon Musk has the certitude of a much younger man when it comes to his absolute conviction he can individually change the way an entire society thinks and acts in a short timeframe. Watching him talk is a bit like watching a freshly-minted college grad talk until you realize this guy is 45, not 25.

I'm not sure if I should applaud him for maintaining that sort of idealism well into his forties or if it reflects some dangerous narcissism on his part. Maybe both?
