    "Prufrock is the fastest TBM (Tunnel Boring Machine) in history by a factor of 10+ "

    Really? Not twice, not three times, not four times...... but more than 10 times faster than any TBM we have now?

    Really?

    I wil believe it when I see that prufrock perform. If that day comes, 2 times better will be spectacular. No need for "by a factor of 10+".

    In their early beginnings, visionaries have always been laughed at. 

    Do you really think that where we are now with Tunnel Boring Machines is where we van ever be? Even if Elon Musk fails, at least he will have tried to innovate. As opposed to what lagacy TBM companies are doing in these days.

    Respect.
