There are many disputes today about who invented what, particularly in the case of Edison and Tesla.
so my question to you is: Who do you think was truly the greatest mind of their time.
Personally I believe it was Tesla, who's inventions were amazing, most of which never were produced, and some of which were stolen by Edison.

I too, went with Tesla. His coils alone where an incredible invention, way cooler that the lightbulb. Free energy? wow...
Plus, Edison didn't have any feelings. He was heartless.

Nope, Tesla worked on the motors and engines, not the light bulb.

Tesla worked on anything and everything. He invented the florescent light bulb, and neon lighting. But whether or not he invented the incandesant light bulb is still debated.
