  • @TechnocracyNow Word. LOL.

  • The full extent of the magnitude of the importance of these wise words by Charles Proteus Steinmetz can be more fully appreciated when one is familiar with the Technocracy Technical Alliance technate design he helped to develop along with the scientific prophet Howard Scott. Their completely unprecedented and unique proposal still constitutes the only viable alternative to our dying political economic order, the relevance and urgency of which has never been more apparent then at the present time

  • Towards the end of 1919, American engineer Howard Scott formed the Technical Alliance, a group of engineers, scientists, and technicians based in New York. This group later became Technocracy Inc. Steinmetz was a member. The Technical Alliance started an Energy Survey of North America, aimed at documenting the wastefulness of the capitalist system. The Technical Alliance advocated a more rational and productive society. Technocracy technate was the thing they hit on for North America.

  • that was my great, great, great, great, great grandpa ! (: im not kidding .

  • @dabidosan 

    Also see the Pioneers of Electricity 1850-1950 video to get a full list of the major EE's at GE:

  • @petronius80 I've only recently discovered Steinmetz- aside from Tesla- would you by chance know any other outstanding (but little known) scientists/inventors whom lived around this time period? I'm trying to work on a children's book that would incorporate these people from the past.

  • Steinmetz was huge!

  • ..Charles Proteus Steinmtz was a distinguished engineer of broad interests and a great educator, who, while was continuing his engineering work, took the trouble to guide and encourage the

    younger engineers around him.
