As much as I respect Einstein for receiving a Nobel for the photoelectric effect, it's chump change compared to his work on relativity. Sadly, even the Nobel prize is highly political.
He won the peace prize. Yassar Arafat won one of those. It might as well be made of toilet paper for the amount of bloodshed he tried to stop. The day somebody wins a Nobel Prize in physics for public awareness is the day the scientific community turns its back on the Nobel.c_canuk said:What? you mean Al Gore got the nobel prize just for making a Video about a highly political theory and not actually contributing anything... ;D
Hah sorry. Let me rephrase: How dare those dang You-row-peans take away our God-given Watts? Just another cheese-eating socialist conspiracy cooked up by the Flux Illuminati.

Look closely and you may also find some vestige of context in my comment leading the first post. Or, just ignore all that, and carry on.
