"Tesla was at war with Edison. Tesla lost."

Yes, and that is a damn shame, because there really should not have been any "losers" when both geniuses had so much to offer humankind... Yogi

Tesla won the science war with Edison. Edison said that AC current wouldn't be of any value because it didn't go anywhere. He wanted to wire the country with D.C. Tesla had a far more inventive mind. Edison was a businessman. His "inventing" was done by a team working under him.
