Hello all, nice to be here. Looking forward to learning and participating. Not too much to say about myself, I'm no spring chicken, and without a MV at the moment.

Welcome to the MV addiction. It starts here and ends.............Uhhhh well I'm not really sure if it ever does end, I think in time it just gets worse.

Edison brought him over from Europe and offered him a bonus for completing a project but never paid him. Tesla struck out on his own and developed A.C. versus Edison's D.C. Never got the recognition he deserved.

Correct. Edison also stubbornly fought Tesla's development of AC distribution. As a kid I idolized Edison. As an adult, learning more about what really went down, not so much.

Tesla was way ahead of his time. In many ways he was hamstrung by the limitations of materials at the time.

I'm happy to discuss Tesla and Edison; if this is not the right place to be doing so let's move it to Conversations or wherever.

Tesla rocked......even though he died an ignoble death.

The History Channel had a great special on him a while back.

Welcome to the Green Iron Laughing Accademy.:lol:

You don't have to be crazy to fit in here but it makes it a lot easier.:cookoo:

You need to start planning now for the 2011 GA Rally if you are within a reasonable distance.
