Yes, a wondeful legacy and one very much underappreciated until lately.

I found a CDROM of all of his patents on EBAY.
It is pretty complete.

I mean this in all sincerity, was Tesla a bad guy?
I know that he was a brilliant kook, but did I miss something in the history?

Happy birthday Nikola!!
I always enjoyed reading about his quest for free energy, and his attempts to beam electricity through the air instead of wires. He was a staggering genius, and we take his advances in science for granted everyday.

Tesla was a good guy. Zots are a good thing for him.

I truly wish I understood more about his theories. I think many scientists are still incapable of fully comprehending his genius.

Especially since the US government seized a massive amount of his research upon his death.
Or is that just a legend?
