"... Brethren..." he wrote to you "... a message..." he said and what he said is true "... my best, my dearest..." for this Nobel cause I will confess that "... by design the future will be mine..." He penned a message for all to see and the rhyme he created he tethered to me... As we ate on the 33rd floor his eyes shifted as the feather lifted and I knew once more that this would be a chorus for the eYes, yes "... Horus..." he signed and then his feet shuffled as he walked ... onto my side " Two rooms " by design. Thoth is along for the ride " good thoughts " and good vibes “Let the future tell the truth, and evaluate each one according to his work and accomplishments. The present is theirs; the future, for which I have really worked, is mine” Nikola Tesla Tesla was asked by the American Red Cross to predict man’s greatest possible achievement over the next century. This letter is his reply, dated Christmas 1900. To the American Red Cross New York City. The retrospect is glorious, the prospect is inspiring: Much might be said of both. But one idea dominates my mind. This — my best, my dearest — is for your noble cause. I have observed electrical actions, which have appeared inexplicable. Faint and uncertain though they were, they have given me a deep conviction and foreknowledge, that ere long all human beings on this globe, as one, will turn their eyes to the firmament above, with feelings of love and reverence, thrilled by the glad news: “Brethren! We have a message from another world, unknown and remote. It reads: one… two… three…” Christmas 1900 Nikola Tesla
