I built a seven foot high ten million volt Tesla Coil once. Lit it up (10 foot arcs) on a residential driveway. Cops showed up, neighbor lady called them, thought UFOs had landed. :-)

You'll always have something to talk about at parties. Were the cops impressed?

I'm a big fan of Tesla (the man, not the band). But this article was crap. Tesla was bad with money, but a big fan of capitalism. The author's segue into a mini-tirade on the president was unfitting and uncalled for.

According to Spider Robinson, Tesla is alive and well at Callahan's. ;-)

What wonderful fun!

Any other Tesla experiments you'd care to share about publically or privately?
