Afternoon Movie & Discussion:The Current Wars

Come see and discuss a flick with a fun group of people! Meet in the lobby at 2:00. After the movie we will meet up in the mezzanine for a discussion.

The Current Wars: Thomas Edison and George Westinghouse -- the greatest inventors of the industrial age -- engage in a battle of technology and ideas that will determine whose electrical system will power the new century. Backed by J.P. Morgan, Edison dazzles the world by lighting Manhattan. But Westinghouse, aided by Nikola Tesla, sees fatal flaws in Edison's direct current design. Westinghouse and Tesla bet everything on risky and dangerous alternating current.
