There is a lot criticism against the follow who claims that he can achieve 
1000 ft. sparks.
Yet, I think that anyone having read NT's biography and the then impossible 
experiments of him (transmit messages and energy without wires, brushless 
commutators, million volts through his body etc etc.) cannot deny anything so 
easily.
For me, such a claim is very interesting and I am waiting to hear more about 
it, but something essential, not just negative criticism. The very person 
himself has said nothing on the list, so I think we shouldn't just express 
our opinion about what someone else said. We should wait for news (as the 
Tesla Symposium), not bury him alive.
