    the dB scale was a result of alexander graham bell, the inventor of the telephone. a doubling of volume was a "bell" but it was a huge measurement so it was reduced to a deci-bell. in other words a 10th of a bell.
    personally i think tesla was far more of a genius and edison was somewhat a wanker
