Einstein's Relativity as a Money-Spinner

You have to give some credit to Einstein's Relativity...e=mc2 was a big
money maker for all his friends helping him with his building an atomic
bomb.

Einstein did _not_ build an atomic bomb; he urged Eisenhower in a letter to
support the development of one (which led to the Manhattan Project in which
Einstein did _not_ participate in any way), but only to have one to have a
*strategic* advantage over *Nazi Germany*; not for using it against Germany
(or its allies, in this case Japan). Einstein was a pacifist at heart; he
sought to achieve a balance of powers with this, having learned from his
Hungarian colleague that Nazi Germany, through its then-recent conquests,
would soon be able to complete the construction of an atomic bomb. Later he
was horrified that the atomic bomb not only was built but actually used, and
regretted having written that letter.

That Einstein built or had helped building an atomic bomb is only what the
“Starmaker� troll, that you have been feeding by crossposting across 4
newsgroups *without* Followup-To, wants to believe or pretends to believe.

As for E = mc² (you cannot write it properly; do you even know what it means
and where it comes from?), you could not have been writing this without it
as everything in technology that enables you to submit postings depends on
special relativity. Starting with nuclear fission reactors that
(unfortunately, but still) produce the majority of electricity required for
computers in developed countries. And even if you would depend solely on
solar energy (which would be better), then you should be grateful to
Einstein because he researched and explained the underlying photoelectric
effect which started quantum mechanics (another set of theories without
which there would be no microcomputers).

He told everybody....patent everything.

He did _not_ do that *either*. From which yellow press toilet seat do you
get your "information" from?

OMG, are you saying Hagar is a cross poster? Wow! We knew he was a cross
dresser, but never anything like this.
