Default Unusual page--for Art! LOL

Some might not realize, Tesla and Einstein were friends, they were given
opportunities to "pick each others brains."

The turbine he designed/built is still used today in virtually unaltered
design ... his tesla coils virtually "cover the net" and it is difficult
to conduct a through search on antennas/theory and not to start running
into such ... a truly amazing man for his time--I wonder if he would not
even stand as such if born in our time. But thank goodness he
wasn't--he put us "ahead of the game."
