Not just a genius either. He took a pretty good pic for the times.

Yeah he did some wild things building towers that threw sparks, using the planet as his power soruce. He was quite a inventor. It's hard to say what would of happened if he was not there, would someone else have been able to fill the void at a latter date or would technology be set back years. Happy B.D Tesla.

I was pretty sure you were going to go into some rant about how Tesla was a horrible band and defamed other bands of the same period...

Not a band Hoss, he is a Vampire (again) and immortal and still contributing to our ways of life.
