Re: Nikola Tesla
Nikola Tesla is my hero!!
Yes we can't transmit electricity as he suggested, BUT after being ripped off multiple times, perhaps he learned to keep his stuff secret.
I guess julie_m has perfected the system,
OR perhaps invented a NEW transformer,
Perhaps a new Westinghouse brake?.
Maybe a new telephone?
How about the steam turbine??
A paltry polyphase AC system?
Because ALL of the above inventions were "introduced" when a certain Montenegrin peasant worked for the above "inventors".
YES, the CIA moved in and removed all his documentation. WHY ??.
Because we shall never know, it is perhaps polite remembrance, to leave him and his ideas in the realms of science fiction, and NOT ridicule something that we may perhaps re-discover.
Without prejudice, BUT with respect for somebody responsible for over half of what we take for granted.
Thanks mods for the reply,
