$50,000 of Thomas Edison's, during his time, is worth over $1,000,000 today. I rather do without lights. Living under a rock may not be that bad.

I'm having a great day at this instant. I just love me some LPPT! :wub: :wub: It makes me happy. All I have to do is know her heart.

Sense you like Bud Light, what other kinds do you like. I just can't find anything, among the ones I've tried, to sway me from Bud Light.

“I have a little Robot that goes around with me; I tell it what I’m thinking - I tell it what I see. I tell my little robot all my hopes and fears; It listens and remembers everything it hears. At first my little robot followed my command, But after many years of training, it’s gotten out of hand. It doesn’t care what’s right or wrong - or what is false or true It doesn’t matter what I ‘try;’ NOW it tells me what to do." Whoever provided this poem is Unknown, but it says a lot about MY little robot. My needs are satisfied if MY little robot tells me they are. I have developed a h

I appreciate all this good information. I am having a lot of trouble getting away from Bud Light. I have tried many other beers, but I keep coming back to Bud Light. I will try some of the above brands.

I used to hear Budweiser drinkers say that they buy American. But, I have noticed that many of them do like vehicle buyers do. Vehicle buyers still buy vehicles that are maid by foreigners. There are things that can be done against the foreign overtaking of America. Here is a good Beer.

Thanks for your highly regarded reply, Subby! I was just noticing that Bernie Madoff was able to pull off his scams because other financial institutions looked the other way. Banks knew what he was doing, but much like people knew what Thomas Edison was doing, they just looked the other way. I think people who don't try to help this country do right, should not have the right to complain. Edison made Tesla work from 10:30 am to 5:00 the next morning, seven days a week. Even though Tesla did not believe in Edison's direct current motors he worked hard to improve them. Edison to

Here is the employer and the employee. Which one is the employer and which is the employee? Mr. Edison should have been the employee. Mr. Tesla's design in Electricity has done this country the most good. Mr. Edison would have done much better if he had tried to get along with Mr. Tesla. It took J.P. Morgan and George Westinghouse to treat Mr. Tesla with the respect he deserved.

I like your attitude, Teatime! Your self-determination allows you to experiment with new ideas. You don't stay phobic because some misinformation gave you false understanding about something. People who try to sell the kind of logic you found out different about, don't want you to take a chance in learning something new. They think things that have already been learned about doesn't need learning anything else about. They want you to believe thing are what they are, and always have been. Living as if you have no self-determination is living on a false premise and a fictional self-con

Mr. Edison's employee (Mr. Tesla) did more for this country than he could have ever done if he had remained Mr. Edison's employee. It's the same way, to this day. Some people just stay working under stupidity, while their boss is using fear tactics to keep them working for them. MR. Edison still owed Mr, Tesla a lot of money, which he never paid him, but Mr. Tesla parted company with Mr. Edison anyway. Not only did Edison use fear that Tesla would not get paid, but he broadcast to the American people that Tesla would kill them with his electrical devices.

I have extended kindness to people, NC, but it's hard for me to extend kindness to a human snake. I believe some humans think like snakes. Here is a snake with a human head. I wonder if it thinks like a human.

Understanding is not clear and concise. It would be more obvious, and to the point, if it was.

How true that is, VP! Do like Mr. Tesla did. He parted ways with stupidity. Even if Mr Edison was smart in many ways it would have coast this country dearly to ignore Mr. Tesla. Edison used the Electric Chair situation, when it first came into existence, as a scare tactic to make Americans believe AC current was to dangerous for common usage. That fear would have resulted in the devastation of a majority of our important machinery.

What huge wiring we would have, if Thomas Edison had won the debate between DC and AC Current. It would have been very costly, to today's world.

Thanks, PSD! Other than trying to make this a political forum topic, I appreciate everything you have said. And, I appreciate the 10 day of driving such nice people around.

I'm just saying that snakes are hard to convince of anything, PSD! There are human snakes. Why do you not understand this?

Nekoli Tesla tried to interest Edison in AC Current, but was told that the idea was downright un-American. Tesla and Edison soon parted company. Tesla managed to get funding from the financier J.P. Morgan, and he issued a series of AC patents starting in 1887. He soon convinced George Westinghouse to put his money into the development of AC power systems. To the ones who were taught that Thomas Edison was the greatest, what if the American people had to depend on DC Current until this day?

I'm glad you guys understand what I am talking about. Not only that, but you were kind enough to take action against possible debate, as to wrong or right. Thank both of you !

You wouldn't understand it, PSD, if I tried to explain it to you! Even that response tells me that you are only in a defense mode.

Thomas Edison did not invent the light bulb. Joseph Swan was installing them in homes and landmarks in England years before Edison got his light bulb patented and working. Edison was buying out other people’s patents and when Swan eventually sued Edison and won, Edison had to take him in as a partner in Edison’s British company. Edison was a better "convincer" than he was "inventor". In that case he didn't need money of his own, because he knew people who had money. One of Thomas Edison's employees what every bit as much an inventor as he was. In fact This employee help the light bulb

When a snake sheds his/her dead skin he/she looks better, but he/she is still very much a snake. This is why the old saying beauty is only skin deep is so true. With people it's their face that changes, and they can change it themselves. They change faces according to whether they are going to a public outing, or whether they will just be staying at home. Being able to see through the makeup, and know the real person requires thinking beyond what I heard a friend of mine say, Yesterday. My friend was blaming the Almighty for an injustice he was facing. He went so far as to ask me

Why would it be any of their business whether I drink too much, or not, markdavd, as long as I don't give assault, battery, commit defamation of their character, or run over them with my vehicle?

People who label are pointing three times as many fingers, as they are pointing at someone else, back at themselves. I don't need to say who they are. Some are worse Bigots than others. A Bigot will find any number of labels to stick to others, but they fail to see what the other three fingers are pointing at.

I have played Solitaire, but I have discovered Freecell. That is more interesting, to me, than Solitaire is.

If I Drink More Water, Than I Drink Liquor, Am I An Alcoholic Or An H2O-holic? I'm trying to figure out why I have been called an alcoholic by a few people who only heard, from someone else, that I drink liquor. I'm wondering why some of the people, who have heard that I drink water doesn't call me an H2O-holic, because I drink about a gallon a day, I suppose, when I consider how much water everything I consume has in it. Do people resort to stereotyping me into a group who indeed drinks to much liquor, just because they heard that I drink liquor? Is that not a bigoted way of putting
