Tesla for the win!

Mark your calendars folks, July 10 is Tesla day. This Tesla tribute at the Oatmeal says all about Tesla's awesomeness. If you're a true geek, forget all the things you learned about Edison and his light bulb, and know the greatest geek who ever lived. And if you're still in grad school, you'll be able to relate to Tesla's milk and cracker diet, and perhaps his odd way of talking to pigeons too. Now, go out there and invent something.

UPDATE: It seems like I was on to something with this post.  Forbes (no less!) publised a rebuttal on The Oatmeal's piece, which of course garnered a response. Ahhh, science loves their geeks. The tension is electrifying!
