On a chilly October evening, several TSC Board members joined a lively group of local history aficionados who crowded into the cosy parlor of the society’s historic 1828 house at the “Duck Pond”. After the society’s regular business, TSC President Jane Alcorn gave a comprehensive overview of Tesla’s various research and engineering work and his vision for the Wardenclyffe plant.
