I feel bad that Tesla’s name is on this mess. These guys are third graders compared to Nicoli Tesla.
Tesla was a very great scientist. He put his money where his mouth was, and on occasion attempted to put J.P. Morgans money where Tesla’s mouth was. But you have to recognize him for who he was.
These Tesla motor people are jokes.
Yep and Tesla understood how and why his various devices worked. Tesla was way, way ahead of his time and rarely ever gets the credit he deserves. I watched Empire of the Air a few nights ago, the Ken Burns movie about radio pioneers. I was stunned to see them give Lee De Forest ANY credit for inventing radio. Tesla won a patent dispute in the 1940's showing clearly it was him, not De Forest, who had discovered electromagnetic wave propagation, but Tesla's name was never mentioned once in Burns' film. De Forest was a con man, not an engineer. Lee De Forest, in one of his many patent suits, was put on the witness stand to testify about his supposed invention of the vacuum tube. In three and one half hours he could not explain how it worked. I can explain how a vacuum tube works to a five year old in less than one minute......
That's an unfair statement. I know a few good jokes.
