Which says:
 "He did not give proper references in many cases because he worked in a
patent office"

That's a good excuse. I worked in a software engineering development office
so
there is no need for me to give proper references.

The really funny part is that he worked in a SWISS patent office, and what
was
being patented in the early 1900s besides chocolate and cheese with big
holes in it?


                                  The ED relativity quiz.

Q1) Where was Einstein working when he developed his theory in the Swiss
patent office?

Hint : If you don't know then have a guess.


Q2) What was being patented in the early 1900s besides chocolate and cheese
with big holes
in it like his theories?

Hint:  Kuckucksuhren.
   http://www.grandfatherclocksplus.com/cgi-bin/gfcp/cl8390.html

That's how he got his hadron for time and where they are building the Large
Hard-on Collider.

Q3) Where did the idea for time being the fourth dimension come from?
Hint:
'Really, this is what is meant by the Fourth Dimension, though some people
who talk about the Fourth Dimension do not know they mean it. It is only
another way of looking at Time. There is no difference between Time and any
of the three dimensions of Space except that our consciousness  moves along
with it.' -- Herbert George Wells - "The Time Machine" - 1895.

"The secret to creativity is knowing how to hide your sources." --Einstein

a.. "If A is a success in life, then A equals x plus y plus z. Work is x; y
is play; and z is keeping your mouth shut." - Albert Einstein.
a..
a.. Q4) How old was Albert when he read "The Time Machine" ?
Hint:
a.. "Common sense is the collection of prejudices acquired by age
eighteen."- Albert Einstein.
a..

Q5) Is relativity a religion?
Hint:
a.. "Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind." -
Albert Einstein.
a.. "I am convinced that He (God) does not play dice." - Albert Einstein.
a.. "God is subtle but he is not malicious." - Albert Einstein.
a.. "My religion consists of a humble admiration of the illimitable superior
spirit who reveals himself in the slight details we are able to perceive
with our frail and feeble mind." - Albert Einstein.

Q6) Did Einstein understand mathematics?
Hint:
a.. "Do not worry about your difficulties in Mathematics. I can assure you
mine are still greater." - A.E.
a.. "God does not care about our mathematical difficulties. He integrates
empirically." - A.E.

Q7 Was Einstein educated?
Hint:
"Education is what remains after one has forgotten everything he learned in
school." - A.E.
a.. "The only thing that interferes with my learning is my education." - A.
E.

Q8) Did Einstein understand the real world?
Hint:
  "Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one." -A.E.
a.. "The whole of science is nothing more than a refinement of everyday
thinking." -A.E.
a.. "As far as the laws of mathematics refer to reality, they are not
certain, as far as they are certain, they do not refer to reality."

Q9) Was Einstein stooopid?
a.. "Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not
sure about the the universe." - A. E.

Q10) (For mathematicians only)
"In the first place it is clear that the equations must be linear on account
of the properties of homogeneity which we attribute to space and time."

Is tau = (t-vx/c^2)/sqrt(1-v^2/c^2) LINEAR?

Hint:

Why did Einstein say
the speed of light from A to B is c-v,
the speed of light from B to A is c+v,
the "time" each way is the same?


Credit where credit is due, it was hanson that boiled it down to three lines
so succinctly.

"Everything should be as simple as possible, but not simpler." - A.E.

Androcles.
