Teslian dream

Unending BE - episode 87399

"Wake up, young man! You're shaking the floor!"
Jim opened his eyes and woke up from the weird pig-girl dream. He was on a cot in the corner of what looked like a late 19th century laboratory. A good-looking man in his forties had just finished placing an electrode on his forehead, and administered a shock that REALLY woke Jim up."

"Huh... Professor... Tesla?"
"I'm no Professor, young man, but yes -- you did get my name right."
"You are Nikola Tesla?"
"Why, I'm glad you heard of me. I went to the park yesterday evening to feed my pigeons, and found you unconscious behind a bush... Intreresting device, this 'sony vaio' you have with you. Where did you find a logic engine so powerful and small?"

Jim looked around to see that his laptop had been hooked up to a very early version of a battery charger. "Mr. Tesla, sir... what year is it?"

"Why, 1898 of course... you seem to be suffering from amnesia, young man... do you remember anything at all?"

  1. Nikola Tesla with a laptop in 1898? MAJOR history change here...
