Specifically, it's to outbid a competing interest.

Still, I agree that it's a ludicrous sum of money to pay for an unused building that's been derelict for decades.

What happens if we raise more than we need, or if you make a lower bid on the property and there's money left over?
Any money left over will be spent renovating the property and put toward turning it into a Tesla Museum.

Sowait, the 1.7 million is for buying the PLOT OF LAND?

Dafuq man.

I think they're pretty much on their way to having a goddamn Nikola Tesla Museum.

Wonder what they'll do with the extra 500k they're probably gonna have when this is over.

If this doesn't succeed, science itself will cry. Although it did raise 400k USD in less than 24 hours...

You know, until the last couple of months, I really had no idea just how much attention that blog can actually get. Good lord...

Yeah, it's quite impressive.

I find the Oatmeal a bit hit and miss, but I really enjoyed his article on Tesla - Learned a lot of new things from it. Hopefully he can succeed in his goal - Roughly half way in less then a day is a very good sign.
