I'm always a bit shocked when a friend says they never heard of Elon Musk, but it happens quite often.

- simonh 10y agoIts the same for me, but I suppose if you're not actively looking into buying an electric car he doesn't directly affect many people's lives. Indirectly yes, but not so much directly. Other than that space technology hasn't been big in the popular conscience for many decades now and solar is boring power utility stuff. Until the iPod most people had never heard of Steve Jobs, or if they had he was swiftly forgotten as just another computer guy.
