	I haven't noticed anyone discussing the contributions of
Steinmetz in these ramblings on AC vs DC.  I seem to remember that
Steinmetz was the person who had most of his inventions bought out
by Westinghouse (or at least one of the persons).  I also seem to
remember that he was the one who finally explained how to build an
AC motor with acceptable performance, after describing some of the
loss mechanisms that take place only with AC.
	How about it?  Has anyone else even heard of
Steinmetz??
