You might want to double check the facts on that, I think you confused a couple religions.
In the eyes of God, we are all the same -- He does not discriminate. Don't waste my time with trivialities, asshole.
That's not very funny that you would try and deceive people. What you are doing is abusing the weaknesses of this communication format. You are a testimate to the fact that people cannot regulate themselves.

No,
I will stick around, do not worry!
And to tell you the truth, I really think you are right Russ.
But I promise not to insult, and I will not use any "tough" word.
And, I am representative, but I really am not so important for the world in general...I am at the end of chain. I learn people how to use their expensive stuff and answer their questions...that's where the attitude comes from, I guess.
Alah was never man Rueben, and I was never muslim. Actually, I am not a religous person at all...sorry.
It is all in marketing if you ask me...
Yes, I do dislike freedom.I feel best when in jail taking a shower with my mates...if you could only hear that audio we make there!

If that's a joke, it's not funny.
You'll be saying "fuckin' A" next. Do you wear a white hood at night?
I really hope it was a joke.

I first learned about Tesla and his bizarre religious practices by listening to Laurie Anderson. Apparently, Tesla was always well dressed, even wearing white gloves as he worked and performed animal sacrifices. Perhaps the reason he never made it big is because of his Sunni Muslim upbringing. Fucking Sunni Muslims.
I have seen several tesla coils in my life, and in each case the person who built the thing was not dressed nicely. Maybe there are nicely dressed tesla coil builders in the world today, but I haven't seen 'em. God knows I'd like to.

Some people believe that Tesla (whom I share my birthday with) was involved in the Tunguska Incident. According to the story, he was testing his 'death ray', a particle accelerator.

...Some people connect Tesla to Philadelphia experiment in which whole battleship dissapeard...with the crew!
Last thing he did, just before he died, was series of experiments in which he tied to distribute electricity using some kind of radio waves...
Now that's a good cover for next Shellac record!

Tesla invented wireless power, as you mention lunar. He got a grant from the Edison company to build a power transmitter. He built a tower that is much larger than most radio type towers these days. If you know the size of the towers at each police station here in Chicago, Tesla's was much larger, roughly 5 times the size, if memory serves me right.
Anyway, he did successfully transmit power over the distance of several miles, lighting up some lightbulbs or something. There were a few problems though. He killed some horses, rasied the hair of some old ladies, and Edison couldn't figure out how they would charge people for the power that they used. So, the idea was canned.
It is my dream that in my lifetime, wireless power will become an everyday reality, as a way to power things like cell phones and laptops. I'm currently doing absolutely nothing to help realize this dream.

...Yes and it's not the only thing he made...He refused Nobel prize (hence mentality!) as he did not get credit for radio waves transmission discovery, but that nerd Marconi did...
