shortly before his death in 1943, the eccentric but brilliant inventor nikola tesla telephoned the us war department and offered the secret plans for a "teleforce" weapon which, he claimed, could knock planes out of the sky from a distance of several miles. the recipient, a certain colonel erskine, did not recognise his famous caller. assuming that tesla was clinically insane, erskine promised to call him back and promptly forgot about him.
tesla also offered his invention to european countries, but none of the governments were interested. consequently, the weapon, which the press called a "peace ray" or "death ray", was never built.
