    My home is equipped with Thomas Edison‘s electric lamps. I can write with my quill all hours of the night without getting any soot on my walls.

      Personally, I’ve always been partial to Nikola Tesla’s alternating current.

        Did you not see Mister Edison’s demonstration of how dangerous that is? It killed that beast from the dark continent dead! Surely 200 years from now our descendants will laugh at us for ever giving Tesla the time of day for his proposterous schemes.

        Oh, don’t get me started on my wax cylinders. Those are great for powering through late night sessions.
