Anyone up for building a Tesla Coil ??? ;-)

 From Bre Pettis site,

My show, History Hacker, will be on TV tonight! It’s is all about 
exploring our technological history by hacking the inventions of the 
past. If you can, I’d love it if you can watch it with your kids! While 
making it, I imagined families watching the show and enjoying it together!

I really pushed hard to make the show fresh. There are a billion 
jumpcuts in this show and we achieved some special split screen and 
in-camera effects. It’s an hour long, so I have time to get into some 
projects to break down some of the principles that Tesla pioneered and 
fought for in the war of the currents. I make a neon bulb, AC generator 
from a bike and muck about with an old telephone magneto. I also go 
check out the power plant in the basement of the New Yorker and the 
space systems lab at MIT to see how the principles that Tesla pioneered 
are being used today.
