According to most people in this group, Einstein is like a god.  He can
easily come up with General Relativity without the help of Grossmann,
Minkowski's work, Riemann's work, Netwon's work...  Too bad that he was born
in the 19th century.  If he were born 4,500 years ago.  The Egyptians would
not be wasting their time and energy building these pyramids.  Instead, they
will enjoy hours of late night discussions on Cosmology with anti-gravity,
curved spaces where one can easily get lost in, out dueling each other on
coming up with the most complex yet most concise tensors, etc.

Subject: Einstein, Dirac and so on....

Most of people handle Einstein as he was the most physicist.

I can't help thinking that most "that" people, IGNORE the history of
physics.

For instance, there are a lot of physicists. Paul Dirac in my opinion is
better than Einstein. Of course that's only my opinion.

But I can't stand that most of people do not know who Paul Dirac was.
