Tesla Is Greater Than Edison

I came across this image (sold as a bumper sticker) at The Oatmeal. You can read more in depth about why Tesla is greater than Edison in the book from The Oatmeal, 5 Very Good Reasons to Punch a Dolphin in the Mouth.

For anyone who knows anything about the history of modern technology, they know something about the conflict between Tesla and Edison. In my mind, Tesla is by far the better and greater scientist. He actually invented most of his inventions instead of stealing them and engaging in corporate espionage like Edison did.

I intend to buy a couple of these bumper stickers after the holidays with my first paycheck in 2012. You should, too. Tesla isn't just greater than Edison, he's better.
