- notahacker 14y agoBearing in mind that it was Boeing innovating by introducing lithium ion batteries (by subjecting them to a couple of hundred thousand hours of testing at their own expense) that caused the problem, I'm not sure what further risking their reputation with "Boeing puts the zero in being" Musk would prove. Desperation?
