NC,
I dont disagree with your assessment of Einstein. But if the world is composed of only hard headed sons of bitches like us.......that also aint a good thing. So we have to live with those folks and convince them as best we can. Actually in retrospect some of those same folks were right on Vietnam, no?? mike

OT Your comment about Einstein thinking mostly about physics, flies in the face of those who had personal experiance with the man. It seems that he thought about another topic quite often, females. He tried very hard to come on to anything in a skirt, I've been told by several people who knew him personally.

Of course, one could argue that this too is physics!

All one need do is take a look at a typical Physics (or science and engineering in general) major course requirements. Science, science, math, math and more math. The only grounding in the humanities and the arts many get in the US is the General Education requirements - 100 level survey courses for the most part.
