Let's see how many Albert Einstein stamps we can come up with. No German commerative Abert Einstein stamps. Mr. Einstein had a good reasons to have this request. I understand. I sometimes feel the same way on a smaller scale. Been there, done that. One more reason to honor him with a thread. The only thing is as life goes on one sadly misses out on life. But being true to oneself, I think, is one of the greatest satisfaction in life and, one always has the personal freedom to change ones mind. Did I say this right?

Here's another......  2005 marked the 100th Anniversary of the year Albert Einstein published some papers which changed accepted world views, including the formulation of the special Theory of Relativity. Einstein was a strong supporter of the Jewish people and was involved in the establishment of the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. He bequeathed a collection of his papers to the University. A miniature sheet was also issued to commemorate Philately Day in December 2005. You can see it here: http://goscf.com/t/20223&whichpage=3Londonbus1 |

Wonder why Einstein is sticking out his tongue in the 2005 pictorial postmark. He looks thirsty.  |

On Einstein's 72nd birthday on March 14, 1951, UPI photographer Arthur Sasse was trying to persuade him to smile for the camera, but having smiled for photographers many times that day, Einstein stuck out his tongue instead. This photograph became one of the most popular ever taken of Einstein, often used in merchandise depicting him in a lighthearted sense. On June 19, 2009, the original photograph was sold at auction for $74,324, a record for an Einstein picture. |

Quote: Einstein was a strong supporter of the Jewish people and was involved in the establishment of the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. And he was offered the position of President of Israel in 1952, after the death of Weizmann. (He declined. "I know a little about nature, but hardly anything about men".) Ryan |

Although the science about these things are well over my head, this article released just today suggests that Einstein's theory still lives on: Quote: After a September study suggested neutrinos can travel faster than light – a finding that would shake Einstein's theory of special relativity to the core – a more recent study shows that the test's results must have been wrong.
