Not an American (Tesla was Serbian but became a naturalised US citisen), but did most of his work there, at times under Edison's thumb.
Edison ripped him off big time.
Tesla was weird, maybe an utter whack job.
But most of Edison's inventions are no longer mainstream and many on the decline
we could not have modern life without Tesla's inventions.
Induction motors, transformers, ignition coils and flourecent light starters to name a few.
Tesla's inventions run the world.
Edison got the big name and more credit than deserved.
Tesla was completely nuts but oh so creative.

it's a shame you aren't creative, because we could then note the similarities......

not at all, Ruggie. In fact, now that I am retired, I'm happy as a freakin' clam. Off to VA tomorrow for a few days of paper shuffling and seafood eating. Really, dude, you ought to try the East Coast Douche(tm) lifestyle. It's quite comfy!

Good to see HH is still the forum punching bag.
