Talk:Death ray
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Several mythologies mention lightning as the weapon of gods like Zeus, Thor (the mjolnir) or Indra (the vajra)."
I'm not sure as to how this is relevent - especially considering that all of these mythologies have the same source, so such similarities are hardly notable. Anyone have any reason why this makes any sense to be here? :p

[edit] Tesla's death ray
Found this edit a while ago.
- At the time of his death, the button to launch his death ray was located in a wooden box in his hotel room. Although his weapon was assumed not to work, special precautions were taken and the box was taken by the military.
Is it me, or is this just kinda strange? Sounds like the stuff an UL or a conspiracy theory would be made of. Cal 1234 13:28, Feb 25, 2005 (UTC)
- I recall from one Tesla biography, that Tesla left random items of simple test equipement (e.g. Wheatstone bridge) with hotels as collateral for unpaid bills, telling them that they were important inventions. --Wjbeaty 06:56, Apr 3, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Less-than-lethal energy weapons
What about recent developments in LTL lasers? These definitely aren't "death ray"s (unless they're tuned to cardiac rather than skeletal muscle rhythms...), but they would belong on an "energy weapon" page.--Polyparadigm 09:28, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Archimedes' Death Ray?
