Put That in Your Pipe
Einstein loved smoking a pipe, and evidently gave a good deal of thought to why it so appealed to him. "I believe that pipe smoking contributes to a somewhat calm and objective judgment in all human affairs," he said in 1950 when, at the age of 71, he became a lifetime member of the Montreal Pipe Smokers Club.

Not many people know this but I tutored little AL in math when he was a young man. I know I look pretty good for my age.
Happy Birthday to the most brilliant man I have ever heard about.

His brain was preserved for research before he was cremated and several pieces were sent to different pathologists. If they showed a whole, intact brain, it isn't his.

My physics professor in college worked with and smoked with prof. Einstein.
I can only imagine what the two talked about. I know I wouldn't have understood any of it, but it would have been fun to listen and walk away even more confused than I already was at that stage of my college career.
I know what they smoked, however. My prof. smoked Reveleation, too, among a number of other OtCs. A top shelf along the walls of his lab/classroom were solidly lined with cans of PA, SWR, H&H, Reveleation, and others.
I smoked Reveleation, too, then, thinking, hoping, it might impart some magical thing to my brain.
It didn't.
I dropped physics in the nick of time.
Happy birthday, Mr. Albert!
