I think the "timelessness" thing he said was just one of Nikola's quirks. He tended to get so involved in his work that he didn't notice time passing; often, by accident, he would work for days without sleeping. It happened pretty much every time he worked on something, it wasn't the result of a time machine.

Very nice indeed! Feel free to create a new topic with a summary - maybe any Q&A or FAQs or even questions you have (or even just a duplicate, as bad as that sounds). Or, just create a new topic with the express purpose of linking to that one. Or, let that link suffice, Personally, I fear it'll eventually disappear into the depths of this topic, but it's completely up to you how to handle it.

There's a group called Nikola Tesla? Why didn't anyone tell me!

acctualy, myth busters didnt bust it. Infact myth busters often "bust" because their bank account for that show is going the same way. Mechanical resonance is very interesting and is similar to electrical resonances. Everything has its own resonant frequency dependant on structure, materials, and other environmental details. Not just one frequency may excite a structure. Tesla was interested in standing waves that...

I will have to think about that..... as well as look for the "Notebook" I purchased a few years back on this subject . Thanks for reminding me of it :-)

earth quake machine in mythbusters was busted, so meh radio, I believe he did it in a very complex way with custom equipment ball lightning, are you talking about the "lightning/fire" he held in his hand? I'm working on an instructable on that. But first I have to finish my various tesla coils (stupid NST being all broke) Currently I'm working on the world's smallest tesla coil. I'm not giving any specs...

From what I see in his theories the first half of wireless power is simple, Ionizing a 'beam' of air to conduct along, assumably the circuit is completed ina similar manner with a return, the problem is you'd need to have A few mega volts of potential from what I understand, to get it to work where the air is ionized by the motion of the electrons moving at near light speed, rather than a supercascade which is lower voltage and...
