The major changer, and my hero, to come out of your country, Serbia, is Nicolai Tesla. What a genius! Pity he died broke. Now this is a man who's worked changed everything for the better in this world with his AC electric technology... in my opinion. IF on'y he'd lived to produce the transmission of metered AC electricity through the air, instead of using transmission lines. What a guy. thumbs up thumbs up thumbs up

Given the fact this happened nearly 70 years ago, I really didn`t expect so many to know who he was. Good to see his legacy lives on.

Any idea how many millions could have potentially died if the A bombs hadn`t been dropped on Japan?. It was a necessary evil. I have sympathy for the civilians who were killed or maimed from the bombings. It`s not their fault their Emperor was a psycho.
