[I pit Elmo and his Tesla heist](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/i-pit-elmo-and-his-tesla-heist/1002838)

I trying to figure out how Elmo the muppet heisted Tesla. The thread doesn’t seem to have anything about Elmo in it. Is “Elmo” a typo for Elon? Is it a epithet for Elon? I can’t figure it out. (I didn’t read the whole thread.)
