As for Tesla taking secrets to the grave:  Aren't you aware that Tesla,
Edison, and Marconi are all living on a high Tepui in the remote
Venezuelan
hinterlands, having had eternal youth conferred on them by an
application of
potentials of high voltage and high frequency?  <grin>

But really... The most rookie fresh-out-of-school engineer today knows a
LOT
more about some aspects of electromagnetics and propagation of EM waves
than
Tesla did.  Tesla did have a conceptual gift and an amazing ability to
conceive of an overall system, but in terms of raw information
available,
there's been a lot discovered, both in terms of basic knowledge, and in
terms of analytical techniques."

	Right on.  Tesla the DEITY could say and do anything his many
biographers ascribe to him [whether or not he ever knew about it], but
Tesla the MAN was bound by the same laws of physics that you and I are.
His thoughts as revealed in CSN show how he applied the knowledge of his
day and that he used mathematical approach to design when and where he
could.  No mysticism there at all.
