"When going through hell, keep going".

I saw that, great quote. I also love its corollary, "If you are digging yourself into a hole, first stop digging."

If you just want to read the questions/responses: http://www.reddit.com/r/tabled/comments/2rh6si/table_iama_i_...

I also made a site (http://www.amatranscripts.com) that transcribes popular AMAs. Elon Musk's is here: http://amatranscripts.com/ama/elon_musk_2015-01-05.html

Wish it was longer / more in depth. Seemed like he was rushing through it. Like he has more important things to do...

I think he has something big coming up tomorrow: http://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2015/01/spacex-dragon-crs-5-l...

Nicely done. I've seen a couple of these sites, but I quite like the output of yours.

Is there any logic as to what order the questions and replies are displayed on the page? It doesn't seem to be either of reddit's 'top' or 'best' sorting. Perhaps whatever order they landed in within the JSON?

Yet another option: http://skimreddit.com/http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/...

You can use it on any post (not just AMAs) by adding their URL in front or clicking their bookmarklet.
