Yes @cindyment I do pick and choose what I believe.....It's called Discernment. Discernment Discernment is the ability to obtain sharp perceptions or to judge well. In the case of judgement, discernment can be psychological, moral or aesthetic in nature. Discernment has also been defined in the contexts; scientific, normative and formal.

For sure Tesla was not the only scientist to know and being interested by Maxwell and Hertz discoveries in audio waves? This is common place... British scientists Wilson and Evans do remote control wireless experiments at the same time than Tesla ...It is true but Tesla was the first in US... Like for the x-ray photography simultaneously discovered by him in US and Roentgen in Germany... So what? Radio was created at different few countries in the world by some, even Russia revendicate the invention of radio... Tesla is the creator of the first alternate current motor, not an advocate of AC....Edison was an advocate against him for DC for pure business reason..Nikola Tesla and George Westinghouse built the first hydro-electric power plant in Niagara Falls and started the electrification of the world. This is a fact.... Edison was a tinkerer and a businessman not Tesla... With all his creations behind him he developed another idea about electricity than Einstein, so what? Nobody knows what is electricity till this day....Maxwell use the phenomenological observations in electricity and magnetism of Faraday and others and mathematize all that... But describing precisely a phenomenan mathematically is not an ex-planation... Quantum mechanics is precisely described to the n’th decimals and nobody know what quantum Mechanic means either... Tesla criticized Einstein but nobody know to this day which one is right about the ultimate meaning of electricity.... Recently 2 Russsians physicist created their own enterprise, after analysing the Tesla patents and vouch to recreate Wardenclyffe tower vouching that this will work...I am not competent to judge , but if 2 russian physicists look at it seriously perhaps Tesla was not ONLY a "tinkerer"....Anyway anybody calling Tesla a "tinkerer" is badly informed sorry....Edison was.... By the way my point here is not about the validity of Tesla ideas at Wardenclyffe, but my point is if that 2 Russian physicists BELIEVE nowadays that is is an interesting experiment that means something about Tesla... Then succeess or not of their enterprise is not my point..... No "tinkerer" will interest true physicists one hundred years after his death.....You catch the point? I dont know if the electrical model of the universe made sense it is over OUR heads here, but Tesla was NEVER a "tinkerer"...No tinkerer ever accumulated more patents in electricity than a Steinmetz for example....The three, Tesla, Einstein and the "sorcerer" Steinmetz are together in this rare photo...No tinkerer here...
