Tesla's<br />

Controversial<br />

Life <strong>and</strong> Death<br />

Jeane Manning<br />

Electric power is everywhere, present in unlimited<br />

quantities <strong>and</strong> can drive the world's machinery without the need<br />

<strong>of</strong> coal, oil, gas or any <strong>other</strong> fuels.<br />

Nikola Tesla (1856-1943)<br />

Colorado Springs, International Tesla Symposium, July, 1988—The<br />

man sitting next to me was in tears, shaking with quiet hiccuping sobs as<br />

if trying to be unobtrusive. He was rotund <strong>and</strong> wore thick glasses, but <strong>other</strong>wise<br />

there was little to distinguish his appearance from that <strong>of</strong> two hundred<br />

<strong>other</strong> electrical engineers <strong>and</strong> <strong>other</strong> Tesla fans in the convention hall,<br />

still attentive to the scientist who had addressed them so eloquently <strong>and</strong><br />

was leaving the podium.<br />

It was not difficult to figure out why the man beside me was moved<br />

emotionally. The guest speaker, astrophysicist Adam Trombly, seemed to<br />

have choreographed his talk to lead to the moment. First he warmed up<br />

his audience by praising their hero. He reminded them that Nikola Tesla<br />

was the turn-<strong>of</strong>-the-century genius who fathered alternating current technologies,<br />

radar, flourescent tubes, <strong>and</strong> bladeless turbines. Tesla also presented<br />

the first viable arguments for robots, rockets, <strong>and</strong> particle beams.<br />

If society had followed up on the inventions Nikola Tesla envisioned at<br />

the turn <strong>of</strong> the century as he rode in a carriage near what is now this hotel,<br />

said Trombly, "we wouldn't have a fossil-fuel economy today. And J. P.<br />

Morgan, Rockefeller <strong>and</strong> a number <strong>of</strong> <strong>other</strong>s wouldn't have amassed<br />

extraordinary fortunes on the basis <strong>of</strong> that fossil fuel economy."<br />

FREE ENERGY FROM "VACUUM" OE SPACE<br />

Trombly added that if Tesla's vision had prevailed, we would be dipping<br />

into a clean <strong>and</strong> abundant energy, like taking water from the well <strong>of</strong> space.
