Hi Steve,
"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."
Today we could replace "great minds" with many words, in particular
free energy authors, fringe science promoters, people pawning off
phony cancer-curing devices, and related BS'ers that all couple
themselves with Tesla's name for some sort of publicity or
money-making schemes at the student and public expense.
Imagine if all of this energy was put into some of these fascinating
concepts from that lecture.
One thing I need to put next to that lecture is a link to this:
http://www.electrotherapymuseum.com/2006/TeslaLamp/index.htm
Frank, a dear friend and fellow collector, found a single electrode
Tesla Lamp manufactured by Pressler in Germany in the 1930s. Now
here is something we don't see every day, and in fact it is the only
such bulb I know of to exist, at least its the only one where the
owner knows what it is!
