The Oatmeal is leading a drive to get $850k to buy Nikola Tesla's old labratory

ayjam:

The aim is to turn it into a protected museum. The current asking price is $1.7m but the state of NY will put up half of the cash if the Tesla Science Center charity can raise the other $850k.

So Matthew Inman, author of The Oatmeal webcomic, is heading up the attempt to get donations. Check out the comic/infographic linked and then head over to the IndieGoGo page if you feel like chucking in a few dollars.

I’m donating the fuck out of this. Are you? Tesla was a fucking badass.

There are some pretty great perks, too!
