First cargo-loaded launch to ISS delayed

Elon Musk, the Internet entrepreneur and owner of SpaceX, which aims to be the first private firm to send a cargo craft to the International Space Station, admits he has a case of pre-launch jitters.
 
I didn't know he was born in South Africa. I thought he was an American. Co-founder of Paypal.. Going to actually do a google search on him now. He is a very down to earth guy but its good he is spending time to make sure no error occurs cos spending $100 million + of your own money you sure in hell want to make sure everything is successful 1st try or else say goodbye to your investment..

Just checked Forbes Billionaire List and he doesn't fall under South Africans.

He is south African but has emigrated. Watched an interview with him on the Jon Stewart show. There are still traces of accent ;)
