In the last bad prediction it should be stated: "Thomas Edison, American businessman", because business is the only field in which George Westinghouse could had been competitor to Edison. Westinghouse was not the inventor. Alternating current is invention of Nikola Tesla, and Westinghouse invested in Tesla's invention. So, if you say: "Thomas Edison, American inventor", than you should say that "Edison often ridiculed the arguments of competitor Nikola Tesla for AC power".
