I was a famous engineer and futurist born in central Europe in 1856, lived a full life, and died in New York City. More than 300 patents, some revolutionary, were issued in my name. I may not have had an electric personality, but..... For a fair sum of money you can "own" and "drive" my namesake!

I am a stunningly brilliant futurist and businessman who emigrated from South Africa to the U.S. While my interests and companies are diverse, they are all designed to help fund my burning desire to die far away. A place where a parrot in the proper environment might fly with extreme ease!

Perhaps my most famous quote is "I'd like to die on ____, just not on ____."
