So it’s Friday and my brain is done with school, I walk into my last class before the weekend and I see a very interesting fellow with American flag suspenders and a beard that would make any magician jealous. I sit down and log into the computer. I can see him scanning the room, looking and maybe judging each of us. Once he began he told all of us to shut down our computers, I knew he was about to get down to business, and I was ready. He pulled some out some of his gadgets and then he jumped right in.
He began by explaining who Tesla was, what impact he had, and how awesome he was. He was responsible for the electric life we all live in today. Some of the gadgets Tom showed us were able to convert energy into usable energy. The gadgets used either heat, wind, or solar. He showed how each of these machines worked how they are used in our everyday life.
The most exciting demonstration Tom had was his personally built Tesla coil. The gadget emitted an electrical open spark at the top. From the spark Tom was able to wirelessly power a series of different light bulbs. He explained the amazing and magical properties of the unforgiving electricity.
Over all the demonstration was very enlightening. I learned how crucial Tesla and his technology was to todays technology and even the futures.
