@milehigh I am really not sure how to respond to that last post in reference to myself as in my opinion it would seem to imply serious psychological issues you may want to consider addressing in the near future. As far as Tesla goes, it was Michael Faraday that discovered magnetic induction, and AC power generation is simply the application of the principles of magnetic induction. Certainly Tesla deserves full credit for developing the systems to apply what Faraday discovered and turn it into a real world application. In my opinion the real world application of technology which actually helps people in a measurable way is much more important than any other consideration. It's somewhat akin to Edison being one of the greatest inventors of all time but at the same time he could not understand why AC power distribution was superior to DC power distribution. Edison had his limits just like Tesla has his limits. I believe that both worked in a trial and error fashion most of the time. In my opinion Edison was what he was, an american businessman who stole more technology than he every created and popularized it to make a profit, such is the american way. If you study Edisons history from non-american sources you would find he was considered little more than a showman that was hyped by the american media. You say that Tesla developed "teleautomation" and to a typical free energy experimenter it sounds magical and wondrous. Chances are that was just a form of pulse-width modulation. Tesla's name is not attached to PWM and it's the simplest and most basic way to encode and decode an analog signal. No, teleautomation is what tesla called it in his patent and I noted it for reference, please stop slandering free energy experimenters I find it offensive. For the MIT resonant energy transmission system, Tesla's name may be attached to it but so what? It is called prior art as Tesla has numerous patents on "wireless power transfer" technology and if the MIT technology infringes on these patents then any claims should be denied, that is why. I am not a Tesla fanboy and in the real world he is relatively unknown. A lot of the esoteric stuff that he worked on were mere curiosities with no practical applications. Tesla coils are used to wow people in outdoor concerts where they can look at the electric discharges and listen to the musical notes they can produce. None of the esoteric stuff will ever have a practical application. That is your opinion however I find your continual marginalizing of Teslas work as well as that of others, your personal attacks on persons who mention FE inventors and your condescending attitude towards the FE community offensive. I hope you understand this message load and clear milehigh. Regards AC
