The Lightning Man
 

What do you think ever happened with Nikola Tesla? I heard that the US gov' made his apartment a restricted area for a long time after he died.
Any ideas?

who is he?

Tesla was one smart dude. Google him for some interesting reading on a scientist ahead of his time.

Tesla did a massive amount of work with electricity and the physics around it.

The government probably went through his stuff simply for information. If they hadn't, others would have. No sense leaving the goods for spies, etc to pick through. :)

Well there you go, just learnt something for the day..... thanks TFP.....

Well, "Signs" was really their only hit, and it was a cover. So naturally, they faded into obscurity.
Wait... what?
sk

Thanks Marburg.

This guy invented radio as far as I am concerned.

A true thinker that was discredited by those that could not.

Well I know what I want for christmas now~

*Note* It does NOT have to be a Tesla CD. :D

ABBA will be fine

Works better if you put a cat in with the CD, gives a distinct aroma that will leave others scratching with envy.

I have a picture of two kids I knew in HS in their dorm room, posing like they're lightsaber-fighting with flourescent bulbs over a charged Tesla Coil. You can almost see them emitting nerd-rays in the picture.

I just finished some reesarch on the resonance principle and its relation to the Hutchison Effect. Apparently, Hutchison has found a Zero-Point energy source.

i saw something on tv about him.

must ... attemptttttt (zombies towards the kitchen with cd binder)

ps. thanks for the wiigii link ^-^

does that really happen?
