Jeff,

Thank you for all your efforts in bringing together and preserving
these incredible documents.

The following quote seems very relevant these days.  The last printed
words from the lecture, "On Light And Other High Frequency Phenomenon".


"There can be no great harm in a student taking an erroneous view,
  but when great minds err, the world must dearly pay for their mistakes."

  Nikola Tesla - 1893

Hi Steve,

The amount of bandwidth and number of man-hours wasted each year on rehashing the validity of some of Tesla's wilder speculations on energy transmission is certainly proof of the truth of that quote.
