Yeah, backing Tesla. It was Tesla's patents that put Westinghouse into 
Niagra Falls... Tesla himself supervised.  While not totally 
historically accurate - there are a couple of books on tesla that make 
fascinating reading:  "Wizard: The Life and Times of Nicola Tesla" by 
Seifer - comes with a high recommendation by the American Academy for 
the Advancement of Science; "Tesla: The Modern Sorcerer" by Stewart; and 
guess while you're at it: "The Fantastic Inventions of Nikola Tesla" 
Credited to Tesla with additions by David Hatcher. Things like his radio 
remote controlled boat (or other vehicle) patented in 1898.

Much of today's technology we owe to Tesla...  In spite of Edison's best 
(worst) efforts against him.
