Don't know why I've never heard about this man. It's hard for me to make up my mind if his life or his work is more interesting :) I know those "pupin Coils" from every day life, and still, I did not know the inventor. Quite sad that there may be many people like that, who should be known more probably.
I am happy that you wrote about him, I like your language and style of your posts, it's "easy to read" :)
Thanks to him, we could use the telephone and the telephone wires, so that would be a really significant invention. Yes, there are many people we should more know and read about. I am glad you like my post! :) Cheers
