Edison, the Man Page #6

---

It has burned all the gas.

Well, it will not function.

- We have to try something else. - What?

We've tried dozens of metals, lead, copper, iron, aluminum, tin.

We have to test hundreds more, perhaps thousands.

But I know that somewhere in this universe

There is a substance that will work and we will find.

We need more light for its size or not progress at all.

If platinum does not give us, I do not know what we can give.

- We connect? - Yes.

Well, it should work, but not working.

There must be some reason which we have not thought of.

We may not have the right stuff.

We've tried everything but that.

Come on, son, crying. Cries.

Cry, cry, child. Cries.

- Do you ever cry? - Very often.

Never when I'm here, I try since I was 9 months.

Come son, crying, please. Cry, cry baby.

- Tom, that's terrible. - What it is terrible?

Listen to that, "When asked his opinion about Mr. Edison, Professor

He said that in the world of science there is no place for a charlatan. "

- Tom. - You see, did you hear that?

Everyone says that your father is an impostor. Do not listen.

He does not care. Discredited and he sat there quietly.

Leselo back slowly to understand.

I hope I never see that again But Cabbot.

No, do not be hard on him. We've had some good times together.

I would shake his head until his brain unraveling.

Come on, son crying, please.

Although I do not think I have brain.

No, only a vacuum.

Well, even the vacuum can sometimes be useful.

I remember when I was an old dog perdiguera ...

Empty ...

Empty.

I already have it.

Tom, what ...?

Simon, we need an empty, that's what we were looking for.

It burns because the cable is in contact with air.

Much oxygen. We will place the cable in a glass globe and we get the air.

We will put current and see what happens.

No, tonight.

- Is it worth it? - It is sufficient for now.

- Thank you. - Connect the power.

Now it gives more shine.

Not enough, we need to improve the vacuum.

But Tom, we've already reduced to one hundred thousandth of atmosphere.

- It has to be better than that. - We can not with that bomb.

There is a pump mercury in Princeton could serve.

Maybe they give us.

Do we have enough empty, Mike?

More will be impossible.

Okay, connect the current.

Let's go there.

Well, we have failed again.

This is the conclusion of 9,000 experiments.

Terrible Tom.

We know you've worked. Sorry much as you do not get results.

Results? I have many results, 9,000 things not working.

It's a shame.

I would like to see Mr. Edison, please.

What for?

I would like to study to be an inventor.

Oh yeah?

Why?

Because the inventors create things and I like to create things.

What.

See this?

- Do you see how well it works? - Show me again.

Very good.

I made myself, I always broke the nail.

Can you make me one?

I do not know.

Perhaps.

- Not worth much as a knife, right? - It'll be when the fix.

- Tom, where were you? - Mr Els,

this young man would like to be an inventor. What is your name?

Jimmy Price

Well, Jimmy, this is Mr. Els, Jimmy will be working with us.

Where do you live? Where do you sleep?

Well, for now I'll have to sleep here.

Take him to the guesthouse. Give him food and bed.

What happens to you?

God ...

Are you Thomas Edison's?

I think so, Jimmy, but sometimes I am not clear.

You start work at eight o'clock

Edison failed experiment with light. The inventor is wrong.

It is known that research to create light with electric current

It has proved fruitless.

Good morning, Tom.

Good morning, boys, to work.

Why light?

Let's use carbon filament instead of a metal.

- Filament? I do not know the word. - Neither I just invented.

It is a sewing thread. Put it in the oven for one hour.

But before imprgnala carbon.

Then we will prove in the bulb.

But the thread is very delicate. It will break.

Anyway we will try.

- We have already proven carbon. - No carbonized thread.

That's not very scientific, Tom.

I said we have to put aside science. Come on, do it.

Be careful, do not go to break the filament.

It is the 65th.

- Has broken? Is everything alright? - Yes, everything will go well.

Look, he's holding.

Jimmy, bring it to Mr. Edison, but carefully.

I'll be right.

For the love of God, Jimmy, do not you know how to keep up?

Here's a full day's work.

Jimmy.

Jimmy!

Yes.

Watch out for this one, remains hot.

Take it, let Jimmy, we're losing time.

Come on.

The good thing is that errors are not forever.

I should have learned it as a boy.

A filament

cotton yarn horseshoe-shaped,

impregnated carbon.

And enclosed vacuum.

Well, we will test duration.

I'm almost afraid to connect.

Let's go there!

It seems that this will last.

Continues on.

- Well, it should be 7:00. - Yes, maybe more.

How about coffee?

No, I want a glass of milk.

- And bring him another Jimmy. - Clear.

And a piece of cake.

Go home and get some sleep.

He's been here all day.

I will not fall out of bed, Mom.

Above.

Do you like my shoes? Am I pretty with my pink dress?

If these.

More current.

The maximum.

Open the gas.

- 40 hours. - Well, well.

If you have endured 40 hours, it will hold 400.

Put this filament under a microscope.

- What day is today? - October 21.

It is calling newspapers.

He says he will illuminate the city of New York.

Well, I'm going to bed.

Edison invented the incandescent lamp.

Edison requested a concession to illuminate the city of New York.

Edison asked the council to inspect the new system

elctrico de Menlo Park.

Calm down, Jim, concerns cause me indigestion.

If Edison gets permission to light the city.

I can go and making a bonfire of my actions gas.

Let him do it. The bulb probably not going to work.

This is the problem, it will work.

It invents everything works and works well. I know perfectly.

What do you want me to do?

Prevents you get the concession.

I see no reason why Mr. Edison did not have a concession

seeking to electrically illuminate a district ...

Mr. President, your enthusiasm is not shared by us, not even close.

We are asked to allow that New York is used as a testing ground.

The electricity has already been tested thoroughly.

The risk of fire is much lower than the gas.

Wait a moment.

The gas is not at issue.

No, but apparently, the light bulb itself is.

I said to them that we are willing to bury cables

to avoid overloading the telephone poles.

I guarantee you that we will take all necessary precautions.

I still say the risk is too great for those impossible advantages.

But they are not impossible.

even if it were, my partners and I run the risk.

We do not ask financial assistance to taxpayers.

We are only asking for permission to install our equipment, our

own risk, own coasts, and if we fail, we will lose only.

- It seems fair. Can we vote? - Mr. Edison!

One more thing if I may. He knows that no existing dynamo is capable

to produce enough current to power your light system.
