I was raised in NJ, Edison's home state.* We were pumped with
   "Edison is Awesome" stuff as well as "Tesla is Awesome" stuff.*
   If you think about it, had the world gone to DC instead of AC,
   there'd be no need for transformers.* The only reason we need
   transformers is because almost almost EVERYTHING ACTUALLY RUNS
   on DC instead of AC. Anyway, I just wanted to set the record
   straight regarding Tesla.* I don't buy the Edison=Evil
   propaganda because he gave a lot of inventors jobs and money and
   had the marketing machine to get lots of ideas out there that
   would've been lost in people's home garages instead. I feel bad
   that Tesla didn't get his wireless electricity though.* That was
   his big dream. Plus, no DC, no batteries.* No batteries, no
   wireless anything.* We need both.
