McFish,

Albert Einstein — 'If you can't explain it to a six year old, you don't understand it yourself.'

You sure?

I always thought it was his grandmother he was explaining relativity to and marveled at how smart she must be. :-)

Best, Terry

BTW, McFish, a real true quote from Einstein instead of all the fake ones, allowing only for my dubious memory of exact wording:

"I bear the burden of guilt for cheating to attain my academic degrees but given the liberty it afforded me I gladly bear that cross."

The semi-biographical book called "Epitaph" was covered in dust in our Rome, NY, library. I had to cut some pages to read the old book. I have come across only a single reference to it and that denigrated it as not been real biography.

Funny that. I thought it proved Einstein was fully human. :-)

Best, Terry
