Tesla is American. Got citizenship and clearly left whatever sh.thole he came from
Well there are dimwits who consider Giuseppe Rossi to be an American who has betrayed his home country by playing for Italy...so surely, they have no problem admitting that Tesla was Serbian :sleeping

Once again there no such thing as american.
i really liked him in The Prestige.

Serbia like Nokia every time Smaller and Smaller
[QUOTE=fiddy]Theres no such thing as american. Tesla belongs to Eastern Europe.
@OP keep Tesla out of your filthy ignorant trolling mouth[/QUOTE]
I'm working on his biography and his inventions book. My goal is to read every book he has ever written. Most of my ideas are just far ahead of the idiot ISH poster. Guys like you who call me a troll are too stupid to grasp it. Only a few understand me. I have a disdain for Science because most of them are ripping off Philosophers. Tesla is the only true Scientist I respect. He is revolutionary and the only one
With that said, another great invention of his was the "force field." Again, using atmospheric electric energy, he was able to find a practical way to create a forcefield to stop any object in its track. He never got direct funding from this so it was never fully realized, but the idea is there and in the government's hand.
In his biography, he said the only respect he had were for the philosophers such as Descartes. He said Descartes got it right with his science, but he was kept in the dark since he didn't have the technological advances (light, electricity, frequencies, vibration, etc.) to further his perspective. Like me, Tesla also highly criticized the scientists such as Einstein, Edison, Heinz, Marconi, etc. and flat out called them a bunch of idiots. He had such a disdain for their lack of intuitive philosophical thinking he would rather be referred to as an "inventor" although he was a scientist.

Tesla belongs to America. All his inventions are patented in America. America has been blessed with his gift. If Serbia truly owns him, they would be the super power today and America would be some weak country like Canada since Tesla's ideas could create weaponry that makes Einstein's atom bomb look like a b b gun.

For one thing computers does not equal wireless. For two, radio was not invented in the past 100 years, however computers were, so I would the integrated circuit is the most influential technology of our century.
More importantly, why are you giving Tesla credit for radio?
Karl Ferdinand Braun and Guglielmo Marconi were given the Nobel in 1909 and we ended up using Marconi's system as the basis of "radio." Tesla didn't even think you would be able to use "radio" as a means. to communicate. He did invent a radio controlled boat though.
[url]http://earlyradiohistory.us/tesla.htm[/url][QUOTE]Nikola Tesla: The Guy Who DIDN'T "Invent Radio"
Thomas H. White -- November 1, 2012
Question: Shouldn't Nikola Tesla be considered the "inventor of radio", given that in 1943 the United States Supreme Court (supposedly) overturned all of Guglielmo Marconi's patents and proclaimed Tesla "the true inventor"?
Gut Reaction: Are you joking??? In no way, shape or form can this guy be considered the "inventor of radio". Furthermore, contrary to what you might have read, the U.S. Supreme Court never said that he was -- not in 1943, not in any other year. If fact, if anything Tesla's "contribution" was to confuse and slow radio development, due to his misunderstanding of the physics involved. Fortunately, at the time few people were listening to his misguided and exaggerated "true wireless" ramblings.
A More Dignified Response: A fuller answer is that although Tesla did do groundbreaking research in early electrical systems, most importantly wired power transmission using alternating current, his contributions to radio technology were minimal, overshadowed by the far more important practical work conducted by other inventors and scientists, including Heinrich Hertz, Oliver Lodge, Guglielmo Marconi, Karl Braun -- the later two shared the Nobel prize for physics in 1909 -- Reginald Fessenden and John Stone Stone.

Of course, lover boy of Science and media sheep Kev would refute this.
1. Wireless technology is the ability to transmit data from one point to another. The link you cited aren't exactly the same kind of technology I am talking about. Tesla conceptualized the idea (the transfer of data without wire) way before the internet was born. Many of his ideas were attributed to others due to his conflict with Edison. It is not by coincidence Fassenden (who worked for Edison) is being credited for this technology. Other's have been creditted for his works as well. Read his books. It's quite an eye opener. He truly is a pioneer of all these great technologies.
I doubt you know much about Tesla (many don't), but if you read his books, he explain in full detail how he came about wireless technology, and is the pioneer of what we are using today. You can't compare a phonograph or morse code to the same sh*t we use today. You just can't.

Yeah, Tesla conceptualized the idea of something that other people including Alexander Graham Bell had already built working versions of. Tesla (who worked for Edison before Fessenden, note that first "e") didn't believe in radio waves and thought Hertz was all wrong. Marconi gets the credit because he was doing long distance radio transmissions by 1895 and communicated across the English channel by 1899. Fessenden gets the credit because he did audio transmissions by 1900. Others were involved too. They get the credit because they got the stuff to work and solved some of the major technical hurdles. Things that Tesla never did.
Tesla did plenty of great things, but he also got some things wrong. You have moved from "invented" to "conceptualized." This is a nice way of saying he had a habit of bullshitting about what he could and then coming up short in the practical terms.
But yeah, planes that fly by atmospheric electricity and weather changing super death ray weapons would be cool. But you also think that Edison's lightbulb is the only one of his inventions we still use.
