- Not to the "Concerend Citizens" of Winnipeg it's not! After all, didn't
- Tesla propose to use one to provide "free power" to the world? Then where
- would "scientific research" get its funding if the Manitoba Govt. went out

- Let's see, try the Centenial library. Use the topic "Tesla" you should
- come up with about two books(same as I did). Or you could send me e-mail
- for some titles and my home phone so we could discuss this. There are
- several experimenters in Winnipeg building the things(I'm one) and I'm sure
- between us we have most of the litrature or can tell you where to purchase
- it.
