> After all, what good did Einstein do? Millions killed, and devastating nuclear waste from energy extractions.

This is a bit off-topic, but how many people do you know who have been "devastated" by spent nuclear fuel? There's not very much of it (by volume, anyway) and it pretty much just sits there in heavy containers, waiting for us to recycle it. In contrast, we actually inhale the waste produced by burning coal and oil and natural gas.

It's galling that a post praising Tesla, someone who fought Edison's misinformation about AC power, would also repeat misinformation about nuclear energy.

(Oh, and Tesla? I hope you won't mind if I favor high-voltage DC for long-distance high-capacity transmission lines. It really does have some serious advantages these days.)

Truly it is off-topic.

Yes I do indeed. Wanna visit south of Italy around Naples? Or maybe residents of Grdelica, south of Serbia?

The waste is exported to other countries to deal with or just dropped on them through "bombing" or buried under the ground. Inform yourself or go for a road trip with a geiger counter. The volume is not what really matters. Nuclear waste isn't recyclable.

Misinformation?

Yes you are right. I also think A. Graham Bell was an idiot not using a cell phone instead, as well Morse not using binary codes. =)

I think you should visit the building behind the second out of the two identical Tesla seated statues (first one being in Niagara).
