well, guess who? .... Tesla!

it was his contract with westinghouse. westinghouse offered him a mil plus like a dollar royalty in perpetuity for every 746 watts generated from his AC current patents which westinghouse purchased. he tore it up because it would have bankrupt westinghouse.
Yes! And since Westinghouse was a businessman, he never talked him out of the deal. Owing to which Tesla died with little to nothing left in his name.
But the man was one helluva genius. Mad respect.
Why the fuck did he do that?
I can't understand why self sacrifice and celibacy is considered a good thing.
Imagine if Tesla is not celibate, his sons would continue his dad's traits.
How the fuck someone violates 17 of his patent and get away with it?
And why destroy a contract that can make him trilionaires.
This is why I become a businessman. Being geek sucks.
I actually knew every bit of that; I think it's all in Tesla's Wikipedia page.
I personally don't believe the bit about the free energy from the Ionosphere, but there's a lot of evidence about the one in New York were he was going to generate free electricity for the world. (According to his perceived amound of Watt needs at the time. We use far more today so they'd have to build a few more.)
It sucks to think that all of the wars over energy, especially the US Offensive for Oil wars weren't needed... Tesla and some good samaritans could have hooked us up forever, for free.
Someone else could do it now, for that matter, if only some evil corps would allow it to happen.

That's like saying I like wrenches more than Hammers. Sheesh.
I prefer water to food. I mean water you can just swallow but food you have to chew. also water doesn't require wiping my ass like food does.

Food for thought: The name "Einstein" is synonymous with intelligence; the name "Tesla" is synonymous with a one-hit hair metal band from the 80's.
Move right along, nothing to see here.

Eddison was a business man at heart. It reminds me of people doing the MNS stuff, try to get as many as possible and build them up to profit. Of course being a douche was the way most business men were particularly back then.
Still super main ultra point Eddison = Douche, Telsa = A psychotic genius
