Imagine running one's coil surrounded by many millions of dollars of other
people's light and sound equipment, the talent and crew and several lawyers.
That is what we do at the office. ;-)

I had breakfast with the producers of Frank's play last Saturday. kVA

seem like a dry historical look at Tesla's life is really a fascinating play
about Tesla and much more.
