Maybe you can try to open that discussion up again in the future, and maybe people will actually be able to talk about the topic at hand instead indulging in their own personal grandstanding. (mental masterbation kind of thing)Yeah. sorry about that. I don't come around here much anymore- seems toxic lately.

MirandeeYes, DL, that's why he was such a great man. He combined his genius with a conscience and spirituality. When he realized the possibilites of his discovery which lead to the atom bomb, and witnessed the horrors it unleashed when it was used in Japan, he spent the rest of his life trying to rectify that one mistake/regret in his life. He was not a perfect man though. He was married but had about 15 mistresses. Jay Leno said " Einstein not only came up with the "Big Bang" theory, he lived it.
