I'm new to this board, but my vote for next Gorilla, or should I say Godzilla, is ELON. I believe they have become the new industry standard - and fastest growing segment of the computer and internet revolution. First level of application are commercial and industrial, and then the home markets. I believe they will be everywhere. With the new deal about to be signed with ENEL giving them $300 million over three years - this will open the door to other electric companies following suit. This is just the beginning.
