Perhaps so, but this one is the giant 10km tall giant space elevator base station that stands out far above all. I pitched a story on it when he raised $8M in sponsorship for this dross. By the time I wrote it, a couple of days later, it was $10M. By the time it was published it was $12M.
That was a week ago and it's $18.5M now.
So long as it was kept out of corporate clutches, that kind of cash could do wonders. It's very sad to see.
