Discuss Nikolai Tesla and this man's epicness.

I so want one of those Tesla globes, where you touch the glass, and the electricity goes to your fingertip. I just loved to stick all of my fingers on it and I would look like some kind of wizard.

Plasma globe*.

Invented by the same guy, though.

They're not expensive, hell they've even got USB powered ones.

I liked that comic...

Tesla invented most of the stuff Edison got famous for while he worked under him.

Tesla even invented Alternating current, which was a hundred times more efficient than Edison's Direct Current (AC/DC), so Edison started a smear campaign against him and even electrocuted an Elephant. Thomas Edison was a douchebag and Nikola Tesla was a boss.

Even though it is true.
Not saying the comic just made this up.
