Pretty ballsy to post a 45 minute vid as a first-timer post.

Gotta give it a watch despite wanting to go to sleep...

Oddly enough, this fairly deserves a *politics tag for the geopolitical intrigue.

Edison was an asshole

They oversell Tesla's obscurity. I think most people who know the history of electricity know his accomplishments. OK, the masses might think Edison was responsible for our electrical system in the same way they think the Wright brothers were responsible for flight, and are ignorant of Curtiss.

The current film "The Prestige" features David Bowie as Tesla. When was the last time anyone saw Edison portrayed in a film?

Last time I saw Edison on film was also in "The Prestige."

I don't think they are overselling his obscurity. Ask the average person who Edison and Tessla are and they will definitely at least know Edison was an inventor. If they recognize the name Tessla at all they will think of the shitty 80's hair band.

hey man, ....this viddy won't play for me. if it will for you, fagedda bout it, if not, don't wanna dead this, here's a replacement-
