Seriously, please read more about Edison as he is no thief. Tesla has made alot of crazy claims, like Einstein being a theif and stealing the idear of relativity from someone else.

What the hell? Edison was a cruel bastard. He electrocuted animals in public...dogs, even a damn elephant!! Just to try to disprove Tesla's alternated current theory. When the public was shocked and appalled and agreed with Edison, Edison then stole Tesla's alternated current (AC) and used it anyway. What a shit.
So YOU read more about Tesla before trying to support Edison. You obviously know nothing about Tesla...or Edison. Edison stole every idea of Tesla's. He was terrified of Tesla's genius and knew he would ruin him. He even attempted to sabotage his lighting up of the Chicago fair by claiming the patent on his lightbulb and not allowing Tesla to use any of his lightbulbs. So Tesla invented his own different sort of lightbulb and worked it out anyway. He was a genius and a hero. All Edison did was steal from him again and again and continually attempt to black ball him from receiving any support. Not to mention...he burned down Tesla's lab. (not proven but obvious)
Tesla had a vision to provide free energy for all. This was bad business. Where's the money in free energy? This is why he was so persecuted and discredited and no one has a clue who he is these days. It's disgusting really.
Tesla said it best: “Let the future tell the truth, and evaluate each one according to his work and accomplishments. The present is theirs; the future, for which I have really worked, is mine.”
He couldn't have been more right. A true genius before his time, unappreciated...we owe our entire modern society to Tesla. Radio, remote control, electricity, neon, etc. etc. etc. All Tesla's. And why do you think no one knows who he is? Fuck Edison. There's nothing I hate more than people stealing/copying my work. The fact that Tesla had to put up with this through his entire life is enough to drive anyone insane.
