That video was awesome....and not far from the truth. Edison was businessman, Tesla, not so much. Edison wasn't even a fair businessman so Tesla had no chance.

Ah, after all these years finally!!! Your origins are revealed!! I'm not the first ATS user to encounter and question your unusual and ridiculous obsession with Tesla, nor will I be the last. I'm willing to bet you've mentioned the name "Tesla" in 98% of the posts you've made no matter the forum. You're notorious for it!
It all boils down to a high school demonstration and a couple UFO books?
you must have had a very sheltered childhood.
One could write a whole thread entitled "TeslaandLyne finally reveals his origins!" and I bet it would hit the headlines of the ATS homepage. This is some red hot info right here!

Perhaps that's the reason for his claimed anonymity in the US, that you haven't yet graduated to the international metric standard units of measurement.edit on 18/7/2013 by Pilgrum because: (no reason given)
Radar is short for ra(dio) d(etecting a(nd) r(anging). Radar works by emitting pulses of electromagnetic waves toward a target and detecting a small portion of those waves that are reflected back to the receiving antenna. The transmission and reception is usually done by the same dish-shaped antenna. The time between transmission and reception is used to calculate the distance to the target by multiplying one-half the round-trip time by the speed of light to get an answer in terms of length.
The reason is mainly because radar has a harder time penetrating large volumes of water. Contacts made by submarines are often dozens of miles away, and radar would have to be EXTREMELY powerful to reach that far in water, while sound (a mechanical wave) can make it that far.
Also, radar is only an active system allowing for your detection by passive sensors. Whereas sonar can be both passive and active. You can listen to sounds made by other subs' propulsion without giving away your position. That is very important in Anti-Submarine Warfare, and is why quieter submarines have an edge on survivability.
We all really need these kind of people, however boring we find them. I am sure we all know people who are football bores or golf bores, etc., so why not Tesla bores too. They are the ones who will be passionate about a subject.
The man should have his own museum... I'd go... Just not with my friend

If you want to know about a guy that actually is covered up, look into Walter Russell.
I might make a thread about this guy.
en.wikipedia.org...
Russell asserted that neither light nor heat flows from one point of space to another. He stated the same of electricity and magnetism; that neither is a flow varying as the inverse of the square of the distance according to Coulomb's Law, but a reproduction as the inverse of the cube of space. "Light does not travel. The light and heat which appear to come from the star or the sun has never left the star or the sun. That which man sees as light and feels as heat is the reproduced counterpart of the light and of the heat which is its cause."[

I concur. Don't ever remember him being mentioned even once in school. Maybe I was sick that day???

With stuff like that who needed a cover.
For people who do not understand physics they turn to people like this,
Science and religion and most any topic has the outer reaches of people who
lean for a comfort state and can be complete wrong because there is no effect
to the senses.
Tesla was all about observation and senses where light is concerned and of
what we can not see with the radio. The 1981 and 1892 lectures was all about
light from candle flames to Nitrogen flames.
