Spent an hour and a half last night hanging out with Oliver and Joe, of Austin singing Tesla coil fame; that was fun.
Oliver made for good conversation, and Joe dropped in a word or two now and than (and the words were good ones, worth remembering; I'm afraid I was mostly incoherent, as I often am in person as opposed to writing; my brain is wired funny, what can I say). And they gave mad props to Steve Ward, one of the inventors/perfectors of the dual-resonant solid state tesla coil (DRSSTC).
I'm sure out paths will continue to cross over time.
My first coil, though, will be a Dan McCauley miniBrute, just because I have to start _somewhere_ and this looks like a good enough place as any. Then I'll move up to something massive!
Heh.
