Megan Morrone and Owen JJ Stone discuss Elon Musk's Tweets that got everyone in a tizzy. The Tesla CEO says he got "verbal approval" for his underground Hyperloop from NY to Philadelphia to Baltimore and DC in 29 minutes. The tweet was met with skepticism about what exactly "verbal approval" meant.

Makes a big difference if they hear from you."
