Wardenclyffe Preservation in Trouble

Concerns over preservation of Wardenclyffe have increased.

The preservation of Nikola Tesla's Wardenclyffe landmark could be in danger after a series of events, according to a report in Newsday (subscription required).

Tesla filmmaker Joe Sikorski said that the recent $4-million donation to buy and restore the lab by a St. Louis supporter is being held for the time being after the investor became ill, but not fallen through.

Along with that, the Shoreham nonprofit group Tesla Science Center at Wardenclyff is concerned that a proposed zoning change to business that would result in the Route 25A corridor study could bring buyers focused more on business and less on preserving the center.

Spoken like a true teacher. Did you know that the average school teacher is only paying 15% of theRead More actual cost of health care premiums for themselves and their families, when Medical healthcare insurance premiums are rising at an alarming 17% per annum? Do you realize that teachers are paid an additional stipend if they work more than 3 consecutive periods in a day? Are you aware that teacher pensions were protected during the stock market crash of 2008, when the average person's 401K was totally at risk? Perhaps if teachers realized how good they have it - look at the BIG picture and outside of their bubble - then they would complain less. Oh and yes, we need our loftily-paid Administrators to kick in some of the salaries, to help pay for stuff. Hard to believe the school districts' mantras that "it's all for the kids".
