The last New York World's Fair (1964) featured an AT&T picture phone.

I like visionaries.

That's how we move forward.

Thank you, H.G.Wells.

Thank you for the article. Tesla was remarkable. Einstein has the fame due to the patents & financial backing, but Tesla impresses me more & more.

Just imagine if Edison didn't steal a lot of Tesla's work early in his career.

Tesla was a century ahead of his time and continually wanted to "buck" the system (electric cars, free energy, high-efficiency bulbs, etc.).
