<VV> Tesla Info (NO CORVAIR)

[FrankCB at aol.com]

If you guys REALLY want to know more about Tesla, read "Tesla, Man Out of  
Time" by Margaret Cheney.  Among many other pics, the book shows a  rare 
1921 photo of 3 of the greatest scientists of the  20th century, Nikola Tesla, 
Albert Einstein and Charles  Steinmetz.   Regarding Tesla's patent dispute 
with Marconi, the book  states "Only after his death would the U. S. Supreme 
Court uphold Tesla's claim  to be the true father of radio."

If  Edison  was a genius, then Tesla was a SUPER GENIUS. He invented and
proved   AC current superior to Edison's DC current. Tesla worked for Edison
or  a  short time but Edison couldn't or wouldn't recognize Tesla's  genius 
 
or
accept AC current as  practical.




George Westinghouse had no trouble recognizing  Tesla's genius or accepting 
 
AC. I work with either automobiles or  computers, both of which use AC  and 
DC - so I guess I am alternating  currently!
