    I love to hear a piece of someones life story. Like when i read about Einstein, the information for him to come to his conclusions was kinda of there but not really. I mean they started to figure out the nature of light itself but only pieces of it. He harnessed it all in a very poetic way. His story was great and the science took me forever to get through. I really loved the science though.

    You just gotta love a good story.

    The story of Gomer Pyle is an interesting one also.

    Did you know Einstein had an aversion to socks? I find that fascinating. (We all know he had an aversion to hair brushes or combs, but that's commonly known, lol!)

    No i didn't know he had aversion's to any of those things. The little that i read dealt more with the interaction with other leading scientists and then delved into the science. All though i know quite a bit about physics, i couldn't tell what anything meant in a equation. I just know how the universe works.

    I do have a book on more of his life story, and i think one or two on Hawking. Some stuff on quantum physics but never touched any of it. String theory proved to be far to boring for me. And never got around to reading the rest as i changed interests quickly to other stuff.

    Was tempting!!

    Got a mate years back early days of the UK Lottery when everyone knew everyones numbers, machine broke down 2 people in front of him, another machine in the next shop, thought nah that's bad luck won't bother, all 6 numbers £3Mil came up, about 20 people rang him up screaming down the phone he's won, walked around depressed for 3months literally LOL

    The universe has a way of keeping you alive to suffer another day just, but never lets you get ahead, it's kinda odd!!

    What is the point of debating it? If you don't like the topic, don't participate. That simple...
