history buffs Nikola Tesla Thoughts ??
just finished reading a book on Nikola Tesla ....all i can say is wow ! I have heard the name but never knew any detail about him . Seems to be born before his time
inventions The radio , remote control ,pro fected A/c current , flurecsent lighting , Radar, tesla coil ect ....just to name a few . Goes into detail about the time of his death in his room plans were taken by FBI for the so Called "Death RAY"
Goes into how he wanted to wireless power back then but backing from Jp morgan fell through
looking back all my school years all you heard about was Edison . After reading this book "the wizard" Nikola Tesla opened my eyes on this man .
Any thoughts ? pretty crazy shit for the time if you ask me

I used to live across the street from a park where his house once stood. The city bull-dozed the neighborhood, planted grass, and put in some ball parks etc. Nothing but a plaque there now saying his house used to be there. Lots of interesting history with him, Edison royally screwed him in the process of pushing his own ideas. As usual, it was the guy who played the political game best who won, not the guy with the best ideas.

in that book i read , the Fbi took a ton of things from his hotel room at the time of his death
till this day a lot is not being said on what they found ect .....
pretty interesting stuff
if you read on Tesla you will find out he was not a buisness man or good with money ...more of an einstein type of guy vs a guy like edison trying to sell somthing or market it .

You should read the Wikipedia write up. They took everthing, and turned it over to anlysts to study for the war effort. Then they said that he did not have any valid plans or idea's on the particle weapons. They have not talked about Neutron bombs since around 1979 when the Iranians took our hostages, and it was publicly speculated back then that it exsisted. After the hostage where released, I have never heard it brought up again, so who knows. The US Navy is replacing the radar guided miniguns, now with lasers, and that is public knowledge, so don't be surprised when it comes out, like the stealth fighter in the first Gulf War in 1990-91, and other secrete military techonology.5pointslow wrote:in that book i read , the Fbi took a ton of things from his hotel room at the time of his death

http://fuel-efficient-vehicles.org/energy-news/?page_id=785 This ones from the same link. It pegs my Bull shit meter out also, like Defree's. They are also pretty optimistic on what they speculate Tesla may also have been onto.

A man before his time. Most people have never heard of him.

If he was killed for being smarter than the government...we'd all be dead.

I agree but I think they saw him as a threat, he was working on a death ray and said it is not something in theory (he built one) and if he so did they couldn't control him building something even more powerful to use on whom ever...but I like what he said he never put it on paper till it was proven in his mind, so they couldn't kill him and build one from plans...from all the reading I have done he make Einstein look like a bat boy

It kind of looks like from what I have read, and the video posted here, that he may have held back or not introduced some things, as he figured they would not work out well, in the long run. Interesting subject, and a good history refresher course anyway.
