Post Tesla Era

I've decided to pay my respects to the great inventor Nikola Tesla by including his name in my blog title. While I enjoy reading about Tesla, his life, and his accomplishments, I am most fascinated by how discriminate history is, as evidenced by his lack of a name today. It seems that if one wants to leave a legacy, they ought to legislate for it, or, at the least, put their name on everything they can.

  1. Congrats on your new blog, Jake! Do I have the distinction of being your very first contributor?

    History does indeed discriminate. It is also a fanatical revisionist, depending on whose agenda needs propping up. Anyway, as a philosopher, I happen to know first-hand that you come from outstanding philosophizing stock, so you will do well. So stick with it, and good luck!
