Tesla's fertile imagination posited a series of oscillators attached to the earth at strategic points that would be used to transmit vibrations to be picked up at any point on the globe and turned back in to usable power. Since no practical application of this idea could be found at the time that would make money for big investors or other philanthropic souls, (one can't effectively meter and charge for power derived in this way) the oscillators fell into disuse.
[i]Isn't that the case. I imagine there are several power sources [free], but if the mongers can't charge for it, It will not fly. So they took his idea and are creating our mysteriously timed and placed earthquakes. HEY it makes sense to me...........Great read[/b]

Realist - Everybody in America is soft, and hates conflict. The cure for this, both in politics and social life, is the same -- hardihood. Give them raw truth.
