Glenn Beck has announced that he's going to
produce a movie about Tesla and that 'evil' guy Edison.
How long ago did Edison slip from his lofty station as a shining example of American ingenuity and perseverance and descend to villainy?

Can you bring more to the discussion in regard to Edison and Tesla?
