If we are going to bring up einstein , he is the "scientist" I think who everybody defers to and yet he was basically a 100% fraud and a plagiarist.
His equation was publshed by the italian physicist De pretto and many others. While I was making sure I remembered my facts I found this - and other than a couple of new ones on me (Isaac Newton and Preston - all the others I had heard of) https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/einstein-did-not-derive-e-mc2-first.28362/ But he missed out Lorentz so I found this: naturalphilosophy.org/site/harryricker/2015/05/23/the-origin-of-the-equation-e-mc2/ One thing to not is that Poincare sent einstein a lecture he was going to give a few days before eistein publish his paper (using Poincare's paper - with no acknowledgement) in face His papers had no footnots, credits or anything and it was still published. Now here is the kicker Eienstein (the Genius <barf>) didn't get his Nobel prize in 1906 or 1907 but in 1921 and not for the theory of relativity but for "for his services to Theoretical Physics, and especially for his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect". Why? because although many of the people who knew he was a fraud had died - there where still people alive who knew the truth so they could't bring themselves to give it to him for "the greatest equation ever". ) Some years before he died he admitted that the equation stemmed from Maxwells equations (a true Genius if ever there was one, up their with R.P. Feynman Feynman and Nikola Tesla) |I know this is off topic but I have known about thus liar and fraud for so may years. When we say he's an Einstein we should be saying he's a TESLA. Einsteins wife Mileva was probably the brains read about his philandering and payment to here to keep quiet. In Walter Isaacson's biography we get a list of the conditions he gave to Mileva *A. You will make sure:* *1. that my clothes and laundry are kept in good order;* *2. that I will receive my three meals regularly in my room;* *3. that my bedroom and study are kept neat, and especially that my desk is left for my use only.* *B. You will renounce all personal relations with me insofar as they are not completely necessary for social reasons. Specifically, You will forego:* *1. my sitting at home with you;* *2. my going out or travelling with you.* *C. You will obey the following points in your relations with me:* *1. you will not expect any intimacy from me, nor will you reproach me in any way;* *2. you will stop talking to me if I request it;* *3. you will leave my bedroom or study immediately without protest if I request it.* *D. You will undertake not to belittle me in front of our children, either through words or behavior.* *http://www.openculture.com/2013/12/albert-einstein-imposes-on-his-first-wife-a-cruel-list-of-marital-demands.html <http://www.openculture.com/2013/12/albert-einstein-imposes-on-his-first-wife-a-cruel-list-of-marital-demands.html>* But Isaacson still drinks the coolaid of Einstein as a genius. One thing to note all other papers he ever wrote where with others - (probably totally written by the other) but using Einsteins name to add gravitas to the paper. I have not seen one quote attributed to Einstein that somebody else had not said before, but the one we are talking about here https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Rita_Mae_Brown Before I finish Here is where I check if a quote is attributable to someone. I found it years ago when I got so pissed off with yes you read my mind all these quotes from the Genius Einstein that I knew where either Voltaire, Twain, Disraeli and so many more (they do the same with Winston Churchill btw). http://quoteinvestigator.com/2013/04/06/fish-climb/ Thanks Richmond I have another hour or more of programming to catch up on. Now don't get me started on OBAMA with the Nobel peace prize - Cognitive Dissonance anyone? <END OF RANT> Kindest Regards Lagi btw read the book "Genius"by John Gribben about the real Genius Richard Feynman and you will find a few anecdotes that will add fuel to this particular funeral Pyre And While your at it "Surely your joking Mr Feynman" and "What do you care what other people think" both by Ralph Leighton. I don't care if you're not into science - you won't put them down they are that good (How to pick up Women and Crack safes - and the Space Shuttle Challenger story). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZOzoLdfWyKw On 7 July 2016 at 10:11, Richmond <richmondmathew...@gmail.com> wrote: > It is amazing how many "wise" sayings are attributed to many "Wise" > people: Voltaire and Einstein included.
