The problem with you Mr. Wayne is,
you don't know how to read.
In Einstein's own words he expains that E=Mc2 will create an atomic bomb!
"In the course of the last four months it has been made probable -
through the work of Joliot in France as well as Fermi and Szilard in
America - that it may become possible to set up a nuclear chain reaction
in a large mass of uranium, by which vast amounts of power and large quant-
ities of new radium-like elements would be generated. Now it appears
almost certain that this could be achieved in the immediate future.
This new phenomenon would also lead to the construction of bombs,."
I'll help you understand it better...
here are the keywords:
made probable
nuclear chain reaction (=Nuclear fission)
uranium (a large mass of uranium)
power
new radium-like elements
This new *phenomenon* would also lead to the construction of bombs
Does that help?
Or, I'll make it easier for...
To take energy from an atom
for the purpose of
contructing an atmoic bomb
you'll need
nuclear chain reaction (=Nuclear fission)
and uranium (a large mass of uranium)
: The Starmaker <starma...@ix.netcom.com>
: In Einstein's own words
Szilard's words, actually.
: he expains that E=Mc2 will create an atomic bomb!
Without once mentioning E=mc^2. In short, you're making that part up.

E=mc^2 had (and still has) nothing to do with it.
That's why Szilard didn't mention E=mc^2, but uranium and fission were mentioned.

Not "pertinent" since it is "hearsay", which makes it, *irrelevant*!
HEARSAY!
Unverified, unofficial information gained or acquired from another and not part of one's direct knowledge: I pay no attention to hearsay.

You just added something not on the website. Nothing says " written by Szilard".

The Manhattan Project: Making the Atomic Bomb
Introduction
The Einstein Letter
On October 11, 1939, Alexander Sachs, Wall Street economist and longtime
friend and unofficial advisor to President Franklin Delano Roosevelt,
met with the President to discuss a letter written by Albert Einstein
the previous August. Einstein had written to inform Roosevelt that
recent research on chain reactions utilizing uranium made it probable
that large amounts of power could be produced by a chain reaction and
that, by harnessing this power, the construction of "extremely powerful
bombs..." 1 was conceivable. Einstein believed the German government was
actively supporting research in this area and urged the United States
government to do likewise. Sachs read from a cover letter he had
prepared and briefed Roosevelt on the main points contained in
Einstein's letter. Initially the President was noncommittal and
expressed concern over locating the necessary funds, but at a second
meeting over breakfast the next morning Roosevelt became convinced of
the value of exploring atomic energy.
Einstein drafted his famous letter with the help of the Hungarian émigré
physicist Leo Szilard, one of a number of European scientists who had
fled to the United States in the 1930s to escape Nazi and Fascist
repression. Szilard was among the most vocal of those advocating a
program to develop bombs based on recent findings in nuclear physics and
chemistry. Those like Szilard and fellow Hungarian refugee physicists
Edward Teller and Eugene Wigner regarded it as their responsibility to
alert Americans to the possibility that German scientists might win the
race to build an atomic bomb and to warn that Hitler would be more than
willing to resort to such a weapon. But Roosevelt, preoccupied with
events in Europe, took over two months to meet with Sachs after
receiving Einstein's letter. Szilard and his colleagues interpreted
Roosevelt's inaction as unwelcome evidence that the President did not
take the threat of nuclear warfare seriously.
Roosevelt wrote Einstein back on October 19, 1939, informing the
physicist that he had setup a committee consisting of Sachs and
representatives from the Army and Navy to study uranium.

Okay, now...
keep in mind that building the atomic bomb was suppose to be Top Secret.
So, if you were working on the atomic bomb, you were suppose to say
"Szilard thought that liquid metal would be such an efficient coolant that, in combination with an electromagnetic pump having no moving parts (adapted from a design he and Einstein had created),..."
--The Manhattan Project: Making the Atomic Bomb
Now, who invented the electromagnetic pump? Albert Einstein. Why? Because he needs it for atomic bomb he's making!
: The Starmaker <starma...@ix.netcom.com>
: Now, who invented the electromagnetic pump? Albert Einstein.
Szilard, mostly. As you quote, "a design he and Einstein had created".
: Why? Because he needs it for atomic bomb he's making!
Szilard's bomb, mostly. Plus, of course, it's not *needed*
for a fast breeder reactor, Szilard just thought it'd be a good
idea, as your own quote makes clear enough.
"Szilard thought that liquid metal would be such an efficient coolant"
Nothing like it was ever used in a nuclear reactor in the Manhattan
project, yet things like it are used in RVs regularly. So, both implied
claims are lies; neither for bomb production, nor useless elsewhere.

" Einstein drafted his famous letter".
I know there are people who don't know what the word "drafted" means...
it means: Prepare a preliminary version of (a text)
or the word "preliminary"...
pre·lim·i·nar·y/pri?lim??nere-/
Adjective:
Denoting an action or event preceding or done in preparation for something fuller or more important:
In otherwords, Albert Einstein wrote the letter before somebody typed it for him. His secretaries...
drafted: past participle, past tense of draft (Verb)
Verb:
Prepare a preliminary version of (a text).
Select (a person or group of people) for a certain purpose.
Not only did Albert Einstein "drafted" the letter, he "drafted" the people to make his bomb.
In 1947, Szilard decided to leave physics for molecular biology.
Now, why do you suppose he dropped out of Physics, and got into Biology?
Answer: He doesn't know anything about Physics. He was just Albert Einstein's errand boy.
He put his name on everything Albert Einstein told him to put it on!
Without Einstein, he's nothing.
Albert Einstein: Hey, Szilard..I just designed an atomic bomb. I want you to
put your name on it and patent it.
Szilard: Okay boss, whatever you say, as long as I get to keep all the money from it.
"The equivalence of mass and energy is chosen as the guiding principle in the presentation of the background material of the "Introduction." --
Atomic Energy for Military Purposes (The Smyth Report)
The Official Report on the Development of the Atomic Bomb Under the Auspices of the United States Government
By Henry De Wolf Smyth
http://www.atomicarchive.com/Docs/SmythReport/smyth_i-a.shtml
So Smyth is wrong. It's a popular misconception.
Not surprising he fell for it. But anybody who's aware of even the
most cursory details of how the so-called "atomic bomb" works knows better.
Mass/energy equivalence doesn't give any clue whatsoever how to make
fission work, and if you know how fission works, mass/energy equivalence
is totally moot. Has nothing to do with getting a fission chain reaction,
so has nothing to do with the design of the so-called "atomic bomb".
So what Albert Einstein decided to do was get a bunch of guys together to help him build
his atomic bomb. Albert Einstein would be the designer, the architect, the Mastermind.
But he had a problem..
he had no money to pay guys to help him build his atom bomb.
So, he had an idea..
he got a bunch of guys together
Eugene Wigner, Edward Teller, Joliot in France, Fermi and Szilard in America, and others
privately to come together and build an atomic bomb. A private enterprise to help him build
an atomic bomb.
They were all already novitiate because they were all 'refugees' from another country..
but Albert Einstein still needed to pay them because people will do anything for money.
So he told them..
"If you help me build my atomic bomb I'm going to make you fuckin rich!"
and they told him..."You don't have any fuckin money, how are we going to get rich?!?!"
So he told him his idea on how they will become rich building his atomic bomb...
Albert Einstein told them, "One word",..
Mr. McGuire: I just want to say one word to you. Just one word.
Benjamin: Yes, sir.
Mr. McGuire: Are you listening?
Benjamin: Yes, I am.
Mr. McGuire: Plastics.
Albert Einstein: I just want to say one word to you. Just one word.
Szilard : Yes, sir.
Albert Einstein: Are you listening?
Szilard: Yes, I am.
Albert Einstein: Patents.
Albert Einstein promised everyone that all they had to do was patent everything they worked on
and when the work was completed they would be paid hundreds of thousands of dollars for their work.
And when the atomic bomb was tested and exploded, they were paid hundreds of thousands of dollars on
the patents they filed.
The Starmaker
(The Manhattan Project had a famous fight with the physicist Leo Szilard, who wanted financial compensation for a patent he had filed on nuclear chain reactions before the United States began working on the bomb.)
Albert Einstein writes President Franklin D. Roosevelt, alerting the President
to the importance of research on nuclear chain reactions and the possibility that research might lead to developing powerful bombs.
"We have been doing the work of the Devil." -OPPENHEIMER
"I ask myself whether we, the physicists, have not sometimes given too
great, too indiscriminate loyalty to our governments, against our better
judgment-in my case, not only in the matter of the hydrogen bomb. We
have spent years of our lives in developing ever sweeter means of
destruction, we have been doing the work of the military, and I feel it
in my very bones that this was wrong. I shall request the Atomic Energy
Commission to review the decision of the majority of this Board; but, no
matter what the result of that review may be, I will never work on war
projects again. We have been doing the work of the Devil, and now we
must return to our real tasks."
That wasn't very nice calling Albert Einstein a "Devil".

I have..
drawings...
hand drawings
of bombs,
hand drawned
by albert einstein
himself,
by himself..
with his signature
on his special embossed
letterhead..
drawings of bombs, showing how they work,
including the mathematics
behind them...including
his 'friends' telling him,
"you know more about these bombs
than any of us, you draw them,
you show them how it works".
Do you want to see the drawings? Drawings of bombs drawned by Albert Einstein all by himself. On his official
embossed letterhead? With his signature? Including handwriten mathematical notes behind the bombs?

The stuff that are used in nuclear reactors and nuclear weapons have been named after Albert Einstein.
"Einsteinium".
He built the atomic bomb, who else would it be named after?
It's a 'no-branier'...and i'm a no-brainer expert.
Did Albert Einstein 'invent' those magnetic bombs? I'm mean, besides inventing
the atomic bomb, what other bombs did he invent? You know those 'magentic bombs'
they attach to Martians driving cars? I think he invented the electric-magentic bomb,
but I don't know what a electric-magnetic bomb is.
I would ask Albert Einstein because he knows more about this stuff than anybody else
(according to what he quoted himself as saying), but he's dead. And there is this BIG cover-up
in the 'scientific community' that Albert Einstein had nothing to do with bombs.
I think the problem here is, ...the 'scientific community' has trouble putting
two and two together...2 and 2 together. You know, some kind of illness where they
have trouble 'connecting the dots'.
They're too busy searching for the invisible link between the dots.

Except of course that Einsteinium isn't "used in nuclear reactors

Am I teaching physics here??? Wats the world coming too????
"Einsteinium is a synthetic element with the symbol Es and atomic number 99. It is the seventh transuranic element, and an actinide."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einsteinium
Actinides are used in nuclear reactors and nuclear weapons.
"All actinides are radioactive and release energy upon radioactive decay; naturally occurring uranium and thorium, and synthetically produced plutonium are the most abundant actinides on Earth. These are used in nuclear reactors and nuclear weapons."
Actinides are used in nuclear reactors and nuclear weapons.
Einsteinium, an actinide is used in nuclear reactors and nuclear weapons.
