Happy Birthday, Nikola Tesla!

I think you would have them, but someone else would have invented them years later.

You may be right, although the only difference is that I’d be wishing someone else a happy birthday – the sentiment would be the same
By the way, I’m adding you to my blogroll. I also noticed you’re in Toronto; I’m actually going to visit Toronto for a few days next week as my vacation! It’ll be my first time in town.
