The Tunkuska event was a bolide, an air blast resulting from the crushing of a meteor by the pressure of its own shock wave. No indication of a ground source.
Tesla was running off at the pen, asserting things for which he had no substantiation.
You said "NT did talk about this [a weapon that could split the earth in half] in some of his papers. I replied that he was "running off at the pen..."
You were the one who mentioned Tunguska. I was simply informing you of what it was. Different paragraphs. Just like you had different paragraphs.
It was a typo, please excuse me. You are wrong to say that is was a bolide, there was no heat damage anywhere at the site , there were no meteorite fragments discovered even after over 100 years of looking for some, no impact craters at all, not even minor ones, just a lot of trees blown down all in a radiating pattern away from a central point.
That's what a bolide does: it implodes from the shock pressure and converts all its kinetic energy to heat energy, vaporizing the meteor. It is a mid-air explosion, and it would only leave what was found: heat and blast effects. There was heat damage (scorched trees) over a wide area, and mineral samples found consistent with the composition of meteorites. The Barringer Meteorite Crater in Arizona has profuse signs of being what it is, but no pieces of the source meteor have been found, either, because it was all vaporized.

He never said or wrote that. He never wrote anything about Tsunguska.
