Well I thought I knew this place and all this new age talk. I saw this treco in an episode of Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations.
So name-dropping Tesla for bullshit is older than I thought.

“Treco”: thanks for the new word! Urban dictionary defines it roughly as “asshole”, but gives no origin. Where did you pick it up?
Treco is a Brazilian portuguese Slang that means thing, object, contraption, device, gadget or Just a piece of Junk.
Someone who builds a dome in the desert after supposedly having contact with aliens sounds an awful lot like Pacific Islanders building dummy airplanes out of bamboo after having contact with US Naval pilots during the war.

Cool. I saw that definition but wasn’t sure if it was connected. Makes sense though.
