Happy Birthday, Helen. Congratulations to you both. Looks like the kids will have their birthdays fairly close together. My parents used to have joint birthday parties for me and my sister Jean, whose birthday was 20 days earlier than mine, and now if I am in Baton Rouge over Labor Day weekend, we'll celebrate my birthday and my father's at the same time, his is 10 days after mine. But I didn't like doing it when I was a kid. Lydia also got the shaft by having her birthday so close to Christmas, just like Nick does now. As for the book, I offer the title in support of my thesis. I can't remember what they call the theory, but my recollection is that the only thing that hasn't been added to unified field theory is the theory of gravity, that Einstein tried to incorporate it but was unable to do so before his death. He did work out the correspondence between matter and energy, which led to the atomic bomb, which the Germans were trying to develop before the end of WWII, but were unable to do. That's why we offered Werner von Braun citizenship in the US, if we already had the knowledge he possessed he probably would have been executed with the rest of them. But my memory is faulty, I read the book almost 25 years ago.
