Tesla

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DaxD_4n3KMg[^] It's a video about Nikola Tesla, actually a very brief summary of his life. If only he was allowed to do his work, this world would have been very different now. I doubt if any normal person would ever come to know about Tesla if not for the usage of Tesla coils as musical instruments :doh:. I do not believe there was any mention of Tesla in my academic curriculum, it was only by reading some non related materials did I come to know of this inventor.

Let's not forget Sanctuary. It was from that documentary that I learned Tesla was a vampire.

Guess it depends on your curriculum. No way you could get through my program and not know who he was. Although Comp Eng at my school is very integrated to being an EE. I doubt many schools offer EE with out teaching you about him... atleast schools that should be attended. Granted, I do agree that most people don't know about him other than the Coils (musical instruments?? I think of Frankenstein...). But that can be said about numerous crazy smart people. Seems the only time the 'average' person ends up knowing about the crazy smart people is if they went truely crazy and made some Big super weapon and killed massive amounts of people. :doh:
Computers have been intelligent for a long time now. It just so happens that the program writers are about as effective as a room full of monkeys trying to crank out a copy of Hamlet.
