Re: [TCML] too bad Tesla could not a member of IEEE



Tesla was definitely an AIEE member, though I haven't seen any suggestion he was an officer:

Credited for transforming the power semiconductor industry, IGBT
inventor B. Jayant Baliga was recently honored with the 2014 IEEE
Medal of Honor. Baliga combined the physics of bipolar and
metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET)
technologies to create a device far superior to both,
resulting in lighter and more efficient
power converters.

      Tesla was a member of the AIEE (American Institute of
      Electrical Engineers), an officer, if i recall.  IEEE
      had not been invented yet....
