There's a book called "The Prestige" by Brit writer Cristopher Priest. It deals with two feuding magicians at the time Tesla was around and in one section the one goes to Tesla to get help with an illusion he's designing (which uses electricity obviously). Anyway the parts with Tesla in his lab are really cool. Check it out!

The more I read of Jon Katz's work the more I can guess he's one of those blithering "neterati" who read their mail from AOL but still put: jonkatz@well.com at the end of al their emails. Blinded by their own hypocrisy sometimes. Skip -------------------- flifson@csdotuctdotacdotza
