[TCML] All 78 TCBA Issues are Online, for FREE

[Terry Blake <tb3@xxxxxxx>]

Perhaps more fanfare is in order for this momentous occasion. According 
to the website ( http://www.teslauniverse.com );

All 78 original TCBA issues have been scanned and are now available for 
online viewing. The indexes were used to provide limited searching 
abilities until the O.C.R. process has been completed.

Here is what it says on the homepage, by Cameron Prince;

Welcome To Tesla Universe

Well, the wait is finally over. Tesla Universe is online and open to the 
public. It's been a long and sometimes grueling two years, but I believe 
the results will prove the time spent was a worthy investment.

For those of you unfamiliar with the Tesla Universe, let me bring you up 
to speed. The plan is for the site to become the most comprehensive 
Internet archive dedicated strictly to Nikola Tesla, his inventions, his 
research and his life in general. In addition to this, our goal is to 
provide the tools and resources to bring together and support those who 
share a common interest in Tesla.

The initial primary content for the site is the entire collection of 
TCBA Newsletter issues. For the first time ever, they are available free 
to the public in their entirety. Right now they are viewable through the 
reader application but will be available in PDF format soon. We also 
plan to offer the limited remaining printed stock for individual 
purchase through the site. The proceeds will help support hosting costs.

The community aspects of the site primarily include the forums and chat 
rooms at the moment, but much more is in the works. In the coming months 
we'll be releasing many new exciting features such as member blogs, 
photo and video galleries, user-submitted articles and stories, plus 
much, much more.

We invite you to join us in our quest to share the wonders of Nikola 
Tesla and carry on his legacy. Feel free to contact us should you have 
any questions or recommendations and please share your comments.

I have spent most of my day off looking at TCBA issues and am very 
impressed with the website.  Now I can read TCBA issues on my breaks at 
work also.

!!!!!!!!!! Great job Cameron.  !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PS: I know it cost Cameron some money to buy the rights to the TCBA and 
do all this work.  Please help him out by purchasing some of the 
remaining TCBA printed stock.  Then, you won't have to look at those 
annoying "Tesla Universe" watermarks.  LOL.
