In case you've been living in, er, a cave, here's a sum-up of what happened. Musk originally volunteered his tech expertise and engineering staff to assist in the rescue of kids trapped in a flooded cave, a move that generally drew applause. Eventually, his team came up with the idea of a mini-submarine that could ferry them out of cave, guided by divers. Musk personally brought the sub to the rescue operation, tweetingthat the "mini-sub is ready if needed. It is made of rocket parts & named Wild Boar after kids soccer team."Nonetheless, his actions against me do not justify my actions against him, and for that I apologize to Mr. Unsworth and to the companies I represent as leader. The fault is mine and mine alone.
