I think he's certainly a genius. His numerous theories and inventions attest to that.
I wouldn't call him a madman. In his prime he was eccentric and had several phobias and manias, but I'd not call him a madman.

Why the Hell should I have to press “1” for ENGLISH?
I was just watching a segment on him on Modern marvels (one of my favorite shows) and thought he would make an interesting conversation piece.
There are some that believe his papers, which were confiscated by the Government when he died in the 40's, contained information that would lead to the creation of a sound powered death ray. It has been rumored as well that what really takes place at Area 51 is and are theoretical ideas of his, still being conducted such as shooting planes out of the sky with ..."sound".
He was Edison's nemesis. Had it not been for Tesla, we would be using DC power in our homes.
Also see the new "Tesla" car being manufactured in California now. Goes from 0 to 60 in 3.8 seconds. Whoa! 200 miles on a charge.
The phospherescent bulb was Tesla.
The AC generator, hell just go pull him up. Wow...... Basically he made the modern world what it is today but yet I don't remember being taught about him in school yet Edison was shoved doen our throats. Frankly Edison was stuck on himself and not concerned about the betterment of man at all.
As a young man, Tesla was a protege of Edison. After Edison refused to pay him a share of a patent he had made for him Tesla left and dug ditches in New York until he had saved enough money for more experiments. It's a great story

Nikola Tesla was a genius. Period.

Tesla is the genuine daddy of all that we know about electricity in 2009. Edison was a liar and not surprisingly a capitalist.
God Bless Nickolia Tesla!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He was probably refering to the Edison remark, which nothing was shown to back up the claim.

Ohh Edison was a very inteligent guy he was also VERY RUTHLESS and very much a capitalist.... If not for Tesla we would not have AC but only DC and we would have to have local electric stations or a "jump" station about every mile for the electric lines.....
Edison attempted to ruin Tesla and discredit him EVERY chance he could, fortunately Tesla was selfless in his work (a little wacked).
