Comment: Immigration Power -
Not having electric power for several business days makes one appreciate the tremendously beneficent impact electric power has had on human lives. The man who made that happen was Nikola Tesla, an immigrant who left his native land with the design of the three-phase alternating current electric motor in his head, and came to the US to make it a reality. The alternating current (AC) electric transformer and motor invented by this immigrant was responsible for making power available to every business and home at a mere flick of a switch. When we say that America is a nation of immigrants, it is true in many senses of the words. Please let us know your thoughts by writing to us at editor@ilw.com.
