@appa609 no bearing is so well sealed that it is lubricated forever. They are sealed well enough that you cannot oil them easily though.

@itz_akuma the pyramids were built as tombs for the Pharaohs. When you want to be taken as a living God by the locals it helps to have an impressive physical monument to elevate your status beyond what is normal.

@Hiromandt what is it a hot tub?

@appa609 grease is a lot cheaper than bearings are. We're going to find out how much people like electric cars when their battery packs begin to fail and they have to have those replaced.

@itz_akuma nothing is a solution until it is implemented. Tesla was convinced he was in communication with Martians and today after studying the planet some we're pretty sure he wasn't. We think Tesla may have discovered pulsars though?

@ogimilenkovic808 I bet it's not the only thing you don't know.

Tesla saw all of his inventions before he physically created any of them. He only built a few just to prove to himself that he was right.

@itz_akuma who told you I don't know how the pyramids were built, or why? No one is stopping anyone from exploiting any "Free" alternative energy resource they can. We are taught more about Edison because Edison left more of a legacy than Tesla did. Plus I grew up only a town away from Edison's West Orange laboratory. So it was a popular class trip destination for my school to take us to.

@itz_akuma I know all about Tesla. I've read whole books about him. The only institution dedicated to Tesla is in Serbia. I am never going there either. I went to Edison's lab a lot. We'd go about every other year. It was better than the field trip to the Great Swamp. There's not many places you can take a pack of little kids.

@itz_akuma what you call "chem trails" are actually just water vapor trails left when planes fly through the upper atmosphere. It is the same phenomena as when your breath condenses on a cold day really. Jet engines just make a lot more hot air than you do. As its name suggests static electricity is not a useful resource. We consume electrical current. Different forms of electricity have differing characteristics. We use the dynamic variety of electricity rather than the static kind. But if you want to fly a kite in a thunderstorm feel free. No one is going to stop you.

@Hiromandt thank you for propagating an Internet rumor. If the pyramids were not tombs then why do they contain sarcophagus?

@stevelarry3870 the world's biggest soapbox just lets us hear what others have to say. And half of them are of below average intelligence too.

@Dreamdancer11 like signing the rights to alternating current away to George Westinghouse. Dumbest move in human history. Tesla lost an inestimable fortune doing that.

@mito._ I never replaced a failed bearing and felt like I'd saved anything. I've pulled plenty of bearing seals and lubed bearings up and had that feeling though.

@ogimilenkovic808 you don't know what Tesla thought. I learn about whatever I want to learn about. I've read two books about Tesla too. You wait for the government to spoon feed crap into your head. Think inside the box. That's where all of the good stuff is.

It is H.A.A.R.P. and what about it?

What can be asserted without evidence can also be dismissed without evidence.

How does an electron dissipate?

Batteries today are still poor for power storage density

Go touch the bricks, man.

Have you ever heated anything up in a microwave oven?

You need to listen more attentively or pay attention to what you've heard more. He never said, "radio is the lowest energy wave.” Let's listen to what he really said. https://youtu.be/iRXyCwyicLA?t=164 "Radio waves, which are the lowest form of electromagnetic energy." Now when we Google, the lowest form of electromagnetic energy we find, "Radio waves are at the lowest range of the EM spectrum". So I guess he was right.

I do not think anyone can assume they know what someone like Nikola Tesla thought. The guy was clearly operating on a higher level than everyone else was.
