New York to host Tesla memorial conference

The man was a genius and his contributions to scientific knowledge immense.Rest in peace Mr. Tesla and thank you for sharing your genius with the world.

Wish I could go to this!
Tesla changed the world!

NO TO SERB MEMORIAL...….. REMEMBER PRESHEVA?
azir

Don't worry azir. Perhaps one day you albs will be famous for something as well, other then drugsmugling, human trafficing and terrorism...or perhaps you won't.

"nikola tesla was the only intelligent serb that ever existed"

sdan

Well, we are still waiting for the first intelligent albanian to show up.

Well, Danilo, but it is. Serbia gave birth to one of the greatest scientific brains the world has ever known. What great brains have come from your country/people?

Danilo

You need to get your facts straight. Tesla was born in todays Croatia but back then it was Austria. Im born and raised in Malmo, Sweden, but that doesnt change the fact that Im 100% Serbian. And so is Tesla. You are only jelous that you albs don't have anything to be proud of. And you never will have because you are a people full of envy and hatered.

http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikola_Tesla

Azir,

With all due respect, I am not sure how Presheva are related to Tesla. Tesla was an engineer and citizen of the World, and everyone has right to celebrate him. This, of course, includes, his compatriots, Serbs, but also the country on which soil he was born (Croatia) and the country where he achieved his accolades and whose citizen he was (USA).

ecoman.

I am just as "Serbian" as Nikola Tesla. That is "hardly at all". Nikola Tesla has Serbian heritage (like me), but was never born in Serbia, never lived in Serbia, left the Balkans and did all his research thanks to America.

He's an American inventor, not "a Serbian" one.

Serbia did not "produce" this inventor one iota. Quit riding his coat-tails

Danilo,

Tesla was genetically a Serb. He was an American citizen of Serbian descent. Genetics determine intelligence with the help of good parenting(who were Serbs)and positive roll-modeling.

That America gave him the opportunity to invent and use his intelligence does not make him less Serbian.

Too bad the new year didn't bring a change to your chronic negativity. Keep scrubbing your skin to try and take that baptism away.
You are one dark and miserable individual.

But he was a Croatian, and his birth place is a culture monument,to far away somewhere in western Croatia. We have learned in the school that he was a Croatian. Now I must ask you: Who is wrong,the Serbs or the history and Scientists.
(drini., 4 January 2013 21:56)

His father was a Serbian Orthodox priest. Remember that hundreds of thousands of Serbs lived in Krajina? The Serbs and the scientists are both correct. You however are mercifully free from the ravages of intelligence.

NO TO SERB MEMORIAL...….. REMEMBER PRESHEVA?
(azir, 4 January 2013 18:49)

I think a world-renowned scientist and thinker will be remembered by far more people around the world than another Albanian infested backwater.

But he was a Croatian, and his birth place is a culture monument,to far away somewhere in western Croatia. We have learned in the school that he was a Croatian. Now I must ask you: Who is wrong,the Serbs or the history and Scientists.
(drini., 4 January 2013 21:56)

You learned that because Albanains write their own history. I'm surprised you didn't learn he was Albanian and New York belongs to Albania now.

Truth is he was born in Austria (today the spot is Croatia). His father was a SERBIAN orthodox priest. He had on record said he IS SERBIAN. When he died all his paperwork(that America didnt steal) was given to BELGRADE.

Here are the words of Nikola Tesla: "I am equally proud on my Serb origin and my Croatian homeland" and "As a son of my homeland I feel it is my duty to help the city of Zagreb in every respect with my advice and work". He was born in Croatia to parents of serb descent, schooled in Karlovac, Croatia and Graz, Austria, and Prague, and did his most incredible work in the USA. He was against the crimes committed against Croats by the serbian Young Yugoslav movement and King Alexander dictatorship. For some reason you serbs just want him all to yourself. I believe its because Tesla was probably the one person who most improved the living conditions of the world and was the one person who made the biggest contributions to modern science, but also because serbia really has no one else so they don't want to share him with the world and accept the fact that he was a peaceful man that appreciated all the people and countries in his life. I believe he was proud to be a Serb, Croat, and American.

(drini., 4 January 2013 21:56)
What school did you go to?
Nikola Tesla was born in Lika which was then part of the Austro Hungarian Empire not Croatia. Croatia at that time extended little more than a couple of Kilometers outside of Zagreb. The Austrians offered Serbs (fleeing the uprising in Serbia against the Turks at that time) sanctuary provided they watched the borders between the Ottoman and Austrain empires and that is how Telsa’s people settled in Lika. His father was a SERBIAN ORTHODOX priest.
In his time in the US Telsa recited poems told to him by his mother about Serbs and Serbia. He sang Serbian songs accompanied on gusle (lahuta). He was a proud Serb that gave the world what we have today.
Unfortunately we had the Croats claiming him as a “Croatian Serb” when this man was alive Croatia did not exist. It would be like the Serbs claiming the Roman Emperor Constantine the Great was a Serb because he was born in Nis Serbia.
Today’s Croatia is a mix of what the Serbian King gave them after WW1 such as Dubrovnik and the rest of Dalmatia plus Tito added more. The Croats were on the other side with the Germans in both wars.

Well, you certainly didn't learn your racism against "Albs" in Swedish society. You learned that at home.

Look. you serb-identified people living in the west are boring. Albs this, albs that.

I've already identified myself and you're "you albs" to my point.

*shakes my head*

Anyway. My point is. The only thing Tesla did vis-a-vis the balkans is leave it.

All his successes. his failures, how he was robbed... This all together is an American story not "a Serbian" one.

People confuse citizenship with ethnicity. Tesla was clearly Serbian. His father was a Serbian Orthodox priest. In fact, his birth home in Smiljan has been ransacked more than once. Strange way for Croatians to honor one of "their own". Thousands of Chinese live in the Belgrade area.
Are their children born there Serbian? Absolutely not; they are Chinese. For that matter, are Croatian children born in Belgrade Serbian? They may be citizens of Serbia but they are still Croatian. Read Tesla's autobiography, My Inventions. I think Tesla is smart enough to know what nationality he is. Yes he's Serbian, but his genius and inventions are for everyone.

Danilo said, "Sorry Roger. Clearly, I'm wrong. Serbia is the most advanced country in the world when it comes to science and technology. My apologies."

LOL! Didn't your Tata and Mama teach you that apologies mean nothing if they are not spoken with sincerity? Clearly you are wrong and immature.

Your chronic negative comments about Serbs and Serbia are predictable and rather useless. Genetics is the greatest determinate of intelligence and genetically, Tesla is a Serb.

That you live in a dark cynical world and you are chronically negative must be hell.

But he was a Croatian, and his birth place is a culture monument,to far away somewhere in western Croatia. We have learned in the school that he was a Croatian. Now I must ask you: Who is wrong,the Serbs or the history and Scientists.

Sorry Roger.

Clearly, I'm wrong. Serbia is the most advanced country in the world when it comes to science and technology.

My apologies.

What are we even talking about here, Roger?

I say, "When I think of Serbia, 'the land of science and technology' isn't what I think"

You say, "OMFG YES IT IS BECAUSE TESLA"

I say, "lol"

You say, "shut up you negative person".

uh ook.

I am just as "Serbian" as Nikola Tesla. That is "hardly at all". Nikola Tesla has Serbian heritage (like me), but was never born in Serbia, never lived in Serbia, left the Balkans and did all his research thanks to America.
=======================

You are a real piece of work Danilo. You haven't got a clue what a Serb is.
I was born in Sarajevo but that does not make me a Bosniak or Muslim or a Croat or anything else but a Serb.
If you ancestors are Serbs then you yourself is a Serb. It's so very simple that even an idiot can understand.

(King Damir, 5 January 2013 03:31)

Yes he was a Croat. When this man was born Croatia did NOT EXIST. I suppose that all those Roman ruins along the Dalmatian coast were built by Croatian Romans too. He moved to the US in the early 1880s so where is this great Croatia.
Croats cant help themselves. They have no real culture and these people always hang onto the tails of the successful.

nikola tesla was the only intelligent serb that ever existed

When I stop and think of all the ways I could describe Serbia, "country of science and technology" isn't one of them

"All his successes. his failures, how he was robbed... This all together is an American story not "a Serbian" one."

Danilo

Yes, but he is still Serb! You can never take that away from him. If america made Tesla why didn't america make more Teslas? You can not make a genious unless he isn't one to begin with. Back then Serbia and Croatia were mixed. Before that serbs and croats were the same people seperated by major powers and religion.

And I'm not a racist agains albanians.I know plenty of albanians and I worked with many as well. However, I am racist agains albanians at this forum. Most of you are jelous, hatefull and primitive.

"but he is still Serb!"

No one is disputing that he has Serbian parents.

"why didn't america make more Teslas"

probably the same reason Serbia didn't make more.

"Most of you"

Why do you keep calling me Albanian when I have told you a few times that I'm not. Not that I really mind, I just don't understand it. I have a hard time to believe that someone who thinks "You're an [whatever eithnic group]" is a kind of inherent lowing of someone's status isn't chauvinistic towards that group"

But anyway... Why are we talking about this. Let's get back to agreeing how Serbia is "the land of science and technology".

I've truly never lived in such an advanced place in my life. It's fantastic! Mostly because Tesla, right?

I am pleased that Nikola Tesla's work is finally receiving the recognition and appreciation that it deserves. Tesla's contributions towards modern electrical power production and distribution - which continue to benefit our society to this very day - are simply unparalleled.

It is very sad that he died penniless and in debt, and that he never received the fame and fortune that he deserved while on this Earth. Tesla 's work proves that the Serbian people have great potential and intellect, which has been far to often overlooked. Hopefully this inequity will be reversed in the near future, as more and more people in the world realize just how important and critical Tesla's contributions toward science really are.

I have personally worked in several hydroelectric power plants on the East Coast USA (close to New York City), where early-design Westinghouse generators - that are literally one-hundred years old - are still in operation, producing usable electricity to this day! Of course, these generators have been modified slightly to keep up with modern technology, but the stators and armatures are basically unchanged from their original design! I am sure that Tesla was at least partially responsible for designing these wonderful creations! Thank you Mr. Tesla!

Does Tesla has any extended family living in Croatia today or were they all exterminated in Jasenovac Death Camp, forcibly converted to Catholicism like a very large percentage of today's Croats or Ethnically Cleansed either during WW2 or in the 90's.
.... and yes his father was a Serbian Orthodox priest and so too was his grandfather and great grandfather on his mothers side, and he also personally instructed that all his notes, personal testaments and little belongings go to Serbia and under no circumstance to Croatia!
Read up on Mileva Maric, Albert Einstein's fisrt wife who he took credit for most of her research. Serbs also have Female geniuses too!

But he was a Croatian, and his birth place is a culture monument,to far away somewhere in western Croatia. We have learned in the school that he was a Croatian. Now I must ask you: Who is wrong,the Serbs or the history and Scientists.
(drini., 4 January 2013 21:56)

Tesla was indeed born in Croatia and lived among other Croats and Serbs. His family probably immigrated there along with thousands of other Serbs during the Serb Migrations, although I'm not certain of this.

He once even said that he was proud of his "Croatian homeland and his Serbian heritage"

I'm sure he had some great Croatian friends, ya know since the two races didn't hate each other so much back then.

Even though I already knew all this, it would have just taken any dumbo on a computer to use the great tool of Google to look this all up.

NO TO SERB MEMORIAL...........REMEMBER PRESHEVA?

Peggy,

I don't mind if you or anyone else thinks of me as "a Serb".

Personally, I don't think it's a very accurate way of describing me. I'm really more American than Serbian. That's how I would choose to describe myself as it's more accurate, but you can put me in another box if that's your preference. I really don't mind.

I bet if you decided to move to Serbia you'd find, after maybe a year or so, that you're probably more Australian than Serbian, but that's just my guess. Likely, your kids will definitely think of themselves as more Australian as Serbian. This is normal.

(drini., 4 January 2013 21:56)

_____

C'mon sj now stop bringing your racism into this.

The Austrian Empire (and later Austria-Hungary) wasn't so centralized to a point where there was Austria and only Austria. The empire was organized in a way where we saw territory such as "Lands of the Crown of Saint Stephen" and within that we saw "Kingdom of Croatia-Slavonia" (after Austria-Hungary came around) with the capital reaching Zagreb. And no, the borders of the Kingdom was not just outside Zagreb, it reached around Knin if I'm not mistaken.

And no it wouldn't be the same since Nis was Roman at the time and Slavs weren't in the Balkans at the time. That would be true if he Constantine were say, a Greek in an ethnically Roman Nis. Croats claiming Tesla to be Croatia isn't valid in my opinion of course, but it would be ridiculous to compare it to Constantine.

And then you proceed to bring up the World Wars to remind Croats that they are bad people.

"I bet if you decided to move to Serbia you'd find, after maybe a year or so, that you're probably more Australian than Serbian, but that's just my guess. Likely, your kids will definitely think of themselves as more Australian as Serbian. This is normal."
(Danilo, 6 January 2013 14:00)

Obviously not normal for everyone. Always amazes me that those people who are not living in Serbia (and some, as we could read, not even being born there and knowing the country for some holidays at their relatives, at most) think they are the 'best Serbs'. If you decide to leave your country and to live somewhere else, you should become citizen of the country you are living in after some years. Just my opinion.

To multiply the diffusion of nicola tesla give them an idea, make T-shirts with the image of nicola tesla with a message like "Free energy is a reality" and ask everyone you know to use them. and will be a free pubilicity to Know more about it.
