Yes but he was also delusional and mentally unstable.

Originally posted by googlefudgeYou may be right, but how do you come to that conclusion? Can you show me that the wireless energy that he would transmit would be lost at a greater percentage than electrical wires for example? Where is the convincing data?
I seem to remember getting into this with you before.
Tesla was widely regarded as having gone off the rails in his old age with both senility and
OCD as well as potential bi-polar disorder clouding his judgement.
That said all that is irrelevant because science has moved on since then and we know an
awful lot more than he did. Smart people can ...[text shortened]... reat.
World wide wireless power transmission like Tesla proposed is not a viable proposition.

Originally posted by googlefudgeHas this been verified by experiment? The concept is that the energy would bounce between the earth and ionosphere like it was a microwave oven. You would think efficiency would have been a consideration by Tesla. I thought he did experiments to test all of those things.

If you broadcast energy everywhere that has to be less efficient than guiding it carefully to
exactly where you need it.
Also it's one thing to remotely power a fluorescent light bulb, which electrical speaking is
quite robust, it's another to power things like mobile phones and computers w ...[text shortened]... the amount of energy we are talking about here fragile electronics probably

Tesla got it wrong, it doesn't work, that is why people don't do it.
Their is no conspiracy, people don't not use this because they are bad capitalists who just want to
make money, although how you would pay for this is a non-trivial question, they do ...[text shortened]... e planet as a microwave oven.
Now realise that this idea is bloody stupid and wont work.

Why the insults? Was that really called for? Do you feel better now?
I never claimed there was any conspiracy in any way. I never claimed Tesla was going to use the same electromagnetic frequency as a microwave oven either. You seem to think you can read minds. Maybe you are the true nutcase.

First that wasn't an insult but a statement of fact, you have demonstrated many times on these forums including
very recently that you believe in conspiracies for which there is no evidence and huge quantities of evidence against.
This mindset you demonstrate on a regular basis is also apparent in the type and style of your posts on this topic,

Originally posted by googlefudgeI know physics. Anybody who has checked out my posts on this science forum knows that. Even Kazet knows that very well. He just likes to make feeble attempts to pretend I don't to annoy me. I know the inverse square law well and learned it long ago.

Inverse square law, learn it.
And I am not about to join in trying to argue you out of your stupid conspiracies of which the 911

What I do know is that short wave radios receive broadcasts from the other side of the world and nobody gets cooked alive you bloody idiot!
