Integratron
The validity of Van Tassel's claims is something we would never know. I had determined that in the later years of the Integratron that it was no more than a "dog and pony show". The surviving people I interviewed were no more than self worshiping UFO queeks. I believe the basic story of the Integratron is well known so I will not spend much effort on that here. My objective was to engineer the Integratron into at least partial operation, and it was left to my efforts by Van Tassel as a project engineered with deliberation. This is to say they had a defined plan and I was left with their "Heath Kit".
I am not one to believe in "space people". I usually do not want to even hear about it. The UFO Jesus cult in LA took on the Integratron as their holy shrine. I tried my best to not get into that, but it is however they though that Tesla would come back from Venus in a space ship like the second coming of Jesus Christ. This kept Tesla's name alive at least.
Some thing did happen to change my mind a bit. The deal with the notebook and Lockwood was already weird, but there was more. Lockwood took me to my workplace at Captain Hughes company. The business manager talked with me about why I was picking up my glom (a box of 5C22's) and where was I going. I told him to Landers. Then he told me he was born near there, so why am I going there? To work on the Integratron I told him. He turned white and the office went silent. He then recounted his story of being terrified by a childhood encounter with Aliens in the Integratron! What can I say?
