I vote Robert. I don't really know who he is, but Aqizzar does, and he says that he built a doomsday machine. You don't see one of those every day.

Google?  Robert Oppenheimer was the lead scientist on the Manhattan Project (Einstein was #2 I think).  When they watched the Trinity test blast, Oppenheimer quoted over the loudspeakers the Bhagavad Gita, "Now I am become death, destroyer of worlds".  Crazy people believe he may have inadvertently summoned some demons.

I'm still voting for him.  Tesla was cool, but never forget that he was completely crazy.  He invented a lot of fancy and impressive parlor trick machines, but you know what his most practical actual invention was?  The wheel motor, now seen in your speedometer.

This is an argument against him how, precisely?

 I'm gonna have to go with Robert on this one. As scientists, I find Tesla better than Einstein. But Robert was the lead behind the atomic freakin bomb. Only Nobel made a weapon of this magnitude before.

 Actually, this guy is a lot like Nobel. Not only did he create the weapon, he worked on making sure it was not abused for the rest of his life. Awesome.

He helped create the most destructive weapon of our time, he was excessively dramatic, and he found HFS?

Vote Oppenheimer!

'Crazy' not in a 'mwahahaha I'll rule the world with science' way, but in a 'died penniless in a hotel, with only a pigeon and his virginity for companionship' way,

Well, Tesla was a close friend of Mark Twain. That's pretty damn good.

Fair enough, Aqizzar, but you can't beat a mad scientist with a sane scientist. You just can't.

But Nobel is totally up next if Oppy wins.

Not only is it not actually advertising anything, it's just copy/pasting word salads about gold, runescape, oil, yuan, and handbags.  It's like a transporter accident combined all the spambots into one shambling mass of online sales.
