The Big Misconception About Electricity

Tesla is a physicist, a great inventor, one of the great one, and not a tinkerer...

All these posts of you are around a way to falsify facts and history...Using details and dates and complete idiotic argumentation like : he was not alone...

The Tesla unit honor a genius not a tinkerer...

Is Tesla a tinkerer or a genius?

DETAILS AND DATES about inventions cannot diminish the intelligence of a man who own 278 patents because he was few months after someone in some case...

You wanted to prove that he was only a tinkerer not a genius....this is FALSE.... Nevermind any date...

You quit because you CANNOT contradict the large truth with minor details anymore...

Insulting dead people is easy... But only closed mind do that to serve an agenda in an audio thread...

Tesla was NEVER a tinkerer.... Remember it....

Instead of recognizing your wrong qualification you persist with details and date that could never reverse reality about Tesla genius...

i never read the wikipedia entry.... they correct me ... I was wrong it is not 278 patents...

Tesla est l'auteur d’environ 300 brevets dont beaucoup sont attribués à tort à Thomas Edison² traitant de nouvelles méthodes pour aborder la conversion de l’énergie.

By the way i read this book among others:

W. Bernard Carlson, Tesla: Inventor of the Electrical Age, Princeton University Press, 2013, 520 p.

it is one of the authoritative book on Tesla...

Wrote to him that the title is a crookery and a lie... the title of this book made it Just snake oil like Tweaks are....

But a clue about the editor of this book it is Princeton university and they are demanding editor... THEN ...

Stay in audio thread and go against Ted Denney....

It seems it is YOU who was badly informed...

If you want i will send to you a copy of the book NO CHARGE....

PROVE TO ME THAT TESLA WAS ONLY A TINKERER AND I WILL QUIT AUDIOGON...

IS IT A DEAL?

@mahgister the guy’s a sleazeball and very dishonest.

Just let it go. 

A last word: being a cult figure in underground culture dont make him a crackpot nor a tinkerer...

Even if his tower could not has worked like he dreamed about, and it is probable that this tower would not have worked like he dreamed about,

he never was a tinkerer by any meaning of this word..

With his mathematical and physics university formation, his eidetic memory, he was OVER Edison by a large margin... And with 100 hundred more patents in electricy than the genius Steinmetz who owned 200, spoking 8 languages , no one ever called him a tinkerer...Certainly not Einstein, even if Tesla was probably wrong against Einstein about electricity...This is historical fact....

He was human with his limit BUT never a tinkerer,

save for some pretentious people ready to denigrate to make a point....

This photo where we could see Einstein with Tesla and Steinmetz, in a common meeting, at the times the three greatest genius in electricity in the world is testimony of that...

The Carlson book is a very serious work .... The title say all.....
