Hi John,
              That is a good picture. We have a small poster on the lab 
wall here of this picture, beneath the actual picture it says "We have come 
to the wrong planet" and that is printed as part of the poster. One can 
tell it is the same photo but there is no text in the area explaining the 
court gave Tesla credit that is on your site. There is a name by each of 
the men. I often give it a look and wonder what it would have been like to 
hang out with them in those days, especially if I could bring back with me 
what we have seen and know of current technology. Somehow I think they 
would find what we now have as very interesting but not too surprising. I 
would enjoy showing Tesla computers and the coil design models used in the 
new generation machines. Can you imagine him reading and making reply to 
these designs, viewing the working models? I'm sure all three would have 
loved some time on the latest Cray super computers; Now THAT would make for 
an interesting Nova special!
Regards,
               Mike
