mendori, this morning: 'Off Goes the Power Current Started by Thomas Edison'
'Today, Con Edison will end 125 years of direct current electricity service that began when Thomas Edison opened his Pearl Street power station on Sept. 4, 1882. Con Ed will now only provide alternating current, in a final, vestigial triumph by Nikola Tesla and George Westinghouse, Mr. Edison’s rivals who were the main proponents of alternating current in the AC/DC debates of the turn of the 20th century.'
[Edit: 12.38pm: I've been posting this everywhere, and I'd much appreciate your doing the same.]
