I wouldn't want to challenge you, your never wrong
Whom got the last stuff of Tesla none other than John G Trump.
The old story with Harte, everything from Egypt to ^^^^^^^.
He who talks loudest and longest wins. Must get that from the teaching days.
"The day science begins to study non-physical phenomena, it will make more progress in one decade than in all the previous centuries of its existence. "
I could use "let me google that for you" here, but I won't.@Mayhem Clearly my old mate, Hartey is only telling us that something "he" read about "has" to be a fact, and cannot be refuted..
And that "fact" is in Hartey`s own words: (If i remember clearly, all the so called "seized" Tesla materials were released already..quote from18th August 2018)....
@Harte Would you kindly link me to your information source, as iam not certain if the term "materials" you used, refers to objects or papers or both...Cheers ..
SourceThe pigeon would follow Tesla around and come when he called. One time, when the pigeon was ill, he spent days in bed with her, nursing her back to health. He believed he and the pigeon understood each other. “I loved that pigeon,” he told a friend. “I loved her as a man loves a woman, and she loved me.”
A day came, though, when the pigeon flew to Tesla’s window with terrible news. Tesla knew that she was trying to tell him that she would die. Beams of light shot out of her eyes, he claimed, and then life escaped her.
Tesla had completely lost his mind. In his final days, he was an old madman, love-starved and alone, getting through on the joys of a hallucinated love affair with a pigeon. He died shortly after. He was found by a maid, in his hotel room, completely alone.
By 1912, Tesla began to withdraw from that doubting world. He was clearly showing signs of obsessive-compulsive disorder, and was potentially a high-functioning autistic. He became obsessed with cleanliness and fixated on the number three; he began shaking hands with people and washing his hands—all done in sets of three. He had to have 18 napkins on his table during meals, and would count his steps whenever he walked anywhere. He claimed to have an abnormal sensitivity to sounds, as well as an acute sense of sight, and he later wrote that he had “a violent aversion against the earrings of women,” and “the sight of a pearl would almost give me a fit.”
