Nikolai Tesla was one of the most brilliant scientist that ever lived

I would give anything to have worked with him- he is my personal favorite scientist (who is yours?)

There is a nice statue of him in Niagara Falls

(he was single handedly responsible for electricity we all use today - AC current - despite Edison doing the most stupid thing one scientist can do to another, which is to try to stop the success of a better system for your own financial gain - sort of like VHS and BETAMAX ha ha)

Tesla was pretty awesome, though I think my favorite would have to be Blaise Pascal.

And Edison cheated Tesla out of $50K for improvements he made.

Edison really hurt his image with his treatment and unseemly conduct towards Tesla.
