Abstract
Proponents of Einstein have acted in a way that appears to corrupt the
historical record. Albert Einstein (1879-1955), Time Magazine's "Person of
the Century", wrote a long treatise on special relativity theory (it was
actually called "On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies", 1905a), without
listing any references. Many of the key ideas it presented were known to
Lorentz (for example, the Lorentz transformation) and Poincaré before
Einstein wrote the famous 1905 paper.
As was typical of Einstein, he did not discover theories; he merely
commandeered them. He took an existing body of knowledge, picked and chose
the ideas he liked, then wove them into a tale about his contribution to
special relativity. This was done with the full knowledge and consent of
many of his peers, such as the editors at Annalen der Physik.
The most recognisable equation of all time is E = mc2. It is attributed by
convention to be the sole province of Albert Einstein (1905). However, the
conversion of matter into energy and energy into matter was known to Sir
Isaac Newton ("Gross bodies and light are convertible into one another...",
1704). The equation can be attributed to S. Tolver Preston (1875), to Jules
Henri Poincaré (1900; according to Brown, 1967) and to Olinto De Pretto
(1904) before Einstein. Since Einstein never correctly derived E = mc2
(Ives, 1952), there appears nothing to connect the equation with anything
original by Einstein.
Arthur Eddington's selective presentation of data from the 1919 Eclipse so
that it supposedly supported "Einstein's" general relativity theory is
surely one of the biggest scientific hoaxes of the 20th century. His lavish
support of Einstein corrupted the course of history. Eddington was less
interested in testing a theory than he was in crowning Einstein the king of
science.
The physics community, unwittingly perhaps, has engaged in a kind of fraud
and silent conspiracy; this is the byproduct of simply being bystanders as
the hyperinflation of Einstein's record and reputation took place. This
silence benefited anyone supporting Einstein.
Introduction
Science, by its very nature, is insular. In general, chemists read and write
about chemistry, biologists read and write about biology, and physicists
read and write about physics. But they may all be competing for the same
research dollar (in its broadest sense). Thus, if scientists wanted more
money for themselves, they might decide to compete unfairly. The way they
can do this is convince the funding agencies that they are more important
than any other branch of science. If the funding agencies agree, it could
spell difficulty for the remaining sciences. One way to get more money is to
create a superhero - a superhero like Einstein.
Einstein's standing is the product of the physics community, his followers
and the media. Each group benefits enormously by elevating Einstein to icon
status. The physics community receives billions in research grants,
Einstein's supporters are handsomely rewarded, and media corporations like
Time Magazine get to sell millions of magazines by placing Einstein on the
cover as "Person of the Century".
When the scandal breaks, the physics community, Einstein's supporters and
the media will attempt to downplay the negative news and put a positive spin
on it. However, their efforts will be shown up when Einstein's paper, "On
the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies", is seen for what it is: the
consummate act of plagiarism in the 20th century.
Special Relativity
Jules Henri Poincaré (1854-1912) was a great scientist who made a
significant contribution to special relativity theory. The Internet
Encyclopedia of Philosophy website says that Poincaré: (1) "sketched a
preliminary version of the special theory of relativity"; (2) "stated that
the velocity of light is a limit velocity" (in his 1904 paper from the Bull.
of Sci. Math. 28, Poincaré indicated "a whole new mechanics, where the
inertia increasing with the velocity of light would become a limit and not
be exceeded"); (3) suggested that "mass depends on speed"; (4) "formulated
the principle of relativity, according to which no mechanical or
electromagnetic experiment can discriminate between a state of uniform
motion and a state of rest"; and (5) "derived the Lorentz transformation".
It is evident how deeply involved with special relativity Poincaré was. Even
Keswani (1965) was prompted to say that "As far back as 1895, Poincaré, the
innovator, had conjectured that it is impossible to detect absolute motion",
and that "In 1900, he introduced 'the principle of relative motion' which he
later called by the equivalent terms 'the law of relativity' and 'the
principle of relativity' in his book, Science and Hypothesis, published in
1902". Einstein acknowledged none of this preceding theoretical work when he
wrote his unreferenced 1905 paper.
In addition to having sketched the preliminary version of relativity,
Poincaré provided a critical part of the whole concept - namely, his
treatment of local time. He also originated the idea of clock
synchronisation, which is critical to special relativity.
Charles Nordman was prompted to write, "They will show that the credit for
most of the things which are currently attributed to Einstein is, in
reality, due to Poincaré", and "...in the opinion of the Relativists it is
the measuring rods which create space, the clocks which create time. All
this was known by Poincaré and others long before the time of Einstein, and
one does injustice to truth in ascribing the discovery to him".
Other scientists have not been quite as impressed with "Einstein's" special
relativity theory as has the public. "Another curious feature of the now
famous paper, Einstein, 1905, is the absence of any reference to Poincaré or
anyone else," Max Born wrote in Physics in My Generation. "It gives you the
impression of quite a new venture. But that is, of course, as I have tried
to explain, not true" (Born, 1956). G. Burniston Brown (1967) noted, "It
will be seen that, contrary to popular belief, Einstein played only a minor
part in the derivation of the useful formulae in the restricted or special
relativity theory, and Whittaker called it the relativity theory of Poincaré
and LorentzÉ"
Due to the fact that Einstein's special relativity theory was known in some
circles as the relativity theory of Poincaré and Lorentz, one would think
that Poincaré and Lorentz might have had something to do with its creation.
What is disturbing about the Einstein paper is that even though Poincaré was
the world's leading expert on relativity, apparently Einstein had never
heard of him or thought he had done anything worth referencing!
Poincaré, in a public address delivered in September 1904, made some notable
comments on special relativity theory. "From all these results, if they are
confirmed, would arise an entirely new mechanicsÉwould be, above all,
characterised by this fact that no velocity could surpass that of
lightÉbecause bodies would oppose an increasing inertia to the causes, which
would tend to accelerate their motion; and this inertia would become
infinite when one approached the velocity of lightNo more for an observer
carried along himself in a translation, he did not suspect any apparent
velocity could surpass that of light: and this would be then a
contradiction, if we recall that this observer would not use the same clocks
as a fixed observer, but, indeed, clocks marking 'local time'." (Poincaré,
1905)
Einstein, the Plagiarist
It is now time to speak directly to the issue of what Einstein was: he was
first and foremost a plagiarist. He had few qualms about stealing the work
of others and submitting it as his own. That this was deliberate seems
obvious.
Take this passage from Ronald W. Clark, Einstein: The Life and Times (there
are no references to Poincaré here; just a few meaningless quotes). This is
how page 101 reads: "'On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies'...is in many
ways one of the most remarkable scientific papers that had ever been
written. Even in form and style it was unusual, lacking the notes and
references which give weight to most serious expositionsÉ" (emphasis added).
Why would Einstein, with his training as a patent clerk, not recognise the
need to cite references in his article on special relativity? One would
think that Einstein, as a neophyte, would overreference rather than
underreference.
Wouldn't one also expect somewhat higher standards from an editor when faced
with a long manuscript that had obviously not been credited? Apparently
there was no attempt at quality control when it was published in Annalen der
Physik. Most competent editors would have rejected the paper without even
reading it. At the barest minimum, one would expect the editor to research
the literature to determine whether Einstein's claim of primacy was correct.
Max Born stated, "The striking point is that it contains not a single
reference to previous literature" (emphasis added) (Born, 1956). He is
clearly indicating that the absence of references is abnormal and that, even
by early 20th century standards, this is most peculiar, even unprofessional.
Einstein twisted and turned to avoid plagiarism charges, but these were
transparent.
From Bjerknes (2002), we learn the following passage from James MacKaye:
"Einstein's explanation is a dimensional disguise for Lorentz'sThus
Einstein's theory is not a denial of, nor an alternative for, that of
Lorentz. It is only a duplicate and disguise for itEinstein continually
maintains that the theory of Lorentz is right, only he disagrees with his
'interpretation'. Is it not clear, therefore, that in this [case], as in
other cases, Einstein's theory is merely a disguise for Lorentz's, the
apparent disagreement about 'interpretation' being a matter of words only?"
Poincaré wrote 30 books and over 500 papers on philosophy, mathematics and
physics. Einstein wrote on mathematics, physics and philosophy, but claimed
he'd never read Poincaré's contributions to physics.
Yet many of Poincaré's ideas - for example, that the speed of light is a
limit and that mass increases with speed - wound up in Einstein's paper, "On
the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies" without being credited.
Einstein's act of stealing almost the entire body of literature by Lorentz
and Poincaré to write his document raised the bar for plagiarism. In the
information age, this kind of plagiarism could never be perpetrated
indefinitely, yet the physics community has still not set the record
straight.
In his 1907 paper, Einstein spelled out his views on plagiarism: "It appears
to me that it is the nature of the business that what follows has already
been partly solved by other authors. Despite that fact, since the issues of
concern are here addressed from a new point of view, I am entitled to leave
out a thoroughly pedantic survey of the literature..."
With this statement, Einstein declared that plagiarism, suitably packaged,
is an acceptable research tool.
Here is the definition of "to plagiarise" from an unimpeachable source,
Webster's New International Dictionary of the English Language, Second
Edition, Unabridged, 1947, p. 1,878: "To steal or purloin and pass off as
one's own (the ideas, words, artistic productions, etc. of one another); to
use without due credit the ideas, expressions or productions of another. To
commit plagiarism" (emphasis added). Isn't this exactly what Einstein did?
Giving due credit involves two aspects: timeliness and appropriateness.
Telling the world that Lorentz provided the basis for special relativity 30
years after the fact is not timely (see below), is not appropriate and is
not giving due credit. Nothing Einstein wrote ex post facto with respect to
Lorentz's contributions alters the fundamental act of plagiarism.
The true nature of Einstein's plagiarism is set forth in his 1935 paper,
"Elementary Derivation of the Equivalence of Mass and Energy", where, in a
discussion on Maxwell, he wrote, "The question as to the independence of
those relations is a natural one because the Lorentz transformation, the
real basis of special relativity theory..." (emphasis added).
So, Einstein even acknowledged that the Lorentz transformation was the real
basis of his 1905 paper. Anyone who doubts that he was a plagiarist should
ask one simple question: "What did Einstein know and when did he know it?"
Einstein got away with premeditated plagiarism, not the incidental
plagiarism that is ubiquitous (Moody, 2001).
The History of E = mc2
Who originated the concept of matter being transformed into energy and vice
versa? It dates back at least to Sir Isaac Newton (1704). Brown (1967) made
the following statement: "Thus gradually arose the formula E = mc2,
suggested without general proof by Poincaré in 1900".
One thing we can say with certainty is that Einstein did not originate the
equation E = mc2.
Then the question becomes: "Who did?"
Bjerknes (2002) suggested as a possible candidate S. Tolver Preston, who
"formulated atomic energy, the atom bomb and superconductivity back in the
1870s, based on the formula E = mc2".
In addition to Preston, a major player in the history of E = mc2 who
deserves a lot of credit is Olinto De Pretto (1904). What makes this timing
so suspicious is that Einstein was fluent in Italian, he was reviewing
papers written by Italian physicists and his best friend was Michele Besso,
a Swiss Italian. Clearly, Einstein (1905b) would have had access to the
literature and the competence to read it. In "Einstein's E = mc2 'was
Italian's idea'" (Carroll, 1999), we see clear evidence that De Pretto was
ahead of Einstein in terms of the formula E = mc2.
In terms of his understanding the vast amount of energy that could be
released with a small amount of mass, Preston (1875) can be credited with
knowing this before Einstein was born. Clearly, Preston was using the E =
mc2 formula in his work, because the value he determined - e.g., that one
grain could lift a 100,000-ton object up to a height of 1.9 miles - yields
the equation E = mc2.
According to Ives (1952), the derivation Einstein attempted of the formula E
= mc2 was fatally flawed because Einstein set out to prove what he assumed.
This is similar to the careless handling of the equations for radioactive
decay which Einstein derived. It turns out that Einstein mixed kinematics
and mechanics, and out popped the neutrino. The neutrino may be a mythical
particle accidentally created by Einstein (Carezani, 1999). We have two
choices with respect to neutrinos: there are at least 40 different types or
there are zero types. Occam's razor rules here.
The Eclipse of 1919
There can be no clearer definition of scientific fraud than what went on in
the Tropics on May 29, 1919. What is particularly clear is that Eddington
fudged the solar eclipse data to make the results conform to "Einstein's"
work on general relativity. Poor (1930), Brown (1967), Clark (1984) and
McCausland (2001) all address the issues surrounding this eclipse.
What makes the expeditions to Sobral and Principe so suspect is Eddington's
zealous support of Einstein, as can be seen in his statement, "By standing
foremost in testing, and ultimately verifying the 'enemy' theory, our
national observatory kept alive the finest traditions of science..."
(emphasis added) (Clark, 1984). In this instance, apparently Eddington was
not familiar with the basic tenets of science. His job was to collect data -
not verify Einstein's theories.
Further evidence for the fraud can be deduced from Eddington's own
statements and the introduction to them provided by Clark (ibid., p. 285):
"May 29 began with heavy rain, which stopped only about noon. Not until 1.30
pm when the eclipse had already begun did the party get its first glimpse of
the sun: 'We had to carry out our programme of photographs on faith...'"
(emphasis added). Eddington reveals his true prejudice: he was willing to do
anything to see that Einstein was proved right. But Eddington was not to be
deterred: "It looked as though the effort, so far as the Principe expedition
was concerned, might have been abortive"; "We developed the photographs, two
each night for six nights after the eclipseThe cloudy weather upset my plans
and I had to treat the measures in a different way from what I intended;
consequently I have not been able to make any preliminary announcement of
the result" (emphasis added) (Clark, ibid.).
Actually, Eddington's words speak volumes about the result. As soon as he
found one shred of evidence that was consistent with "Einstein's" general
relativity theory, he immediately proclaimed it as proof of the theory. Is
this science?
Where were the astronomers when Eddington presented his findings? Did anyone
besides Eddington actually look at the photographic plates? Poor did, and he
completely repudiated the findings of Eddington. This should have given
pause to any ethical scientist.
Here are some quotes from Poor's summary: "The mathematical formula, by
which Einstein calculated his deflection of 1.75 seconds for light rays
passing the edge of the sun, is a well known and simple formula of physical
optics"; "Not a single one of the fundamental concepts of varying time, or
warped or twisted space, of simultaneity, or of the relativity of motion is
in any way involved in Einstein's prediction of, or formulas for, the
deflection of light"; "The many and elaborate eclipse expeditions have,
therefore, been given a fictitious importance. Their results can neither
prove nor disprove the relativity theoryÉ" (emphasis added) (Poor, 1930).
From Brown (1967), we learn that Eddington couldn't wait to get it out to
the world community that Einstein's theory was confirmed. What Eddington
based this on was a premature assessment of the photographic plates.
Initially, stars did "appear" to bend as they should, as required by
Einstein, but then, according to Brown, the unexpected happened: several
stars were then observed to bend in a direction transverse to the expected
direction and still others to bend in a direction opposite to that predicted
by relativity.
The absurdity of the data collected during the Eclipse of 1919 was
demonstrated by Poor (1930), who pointed out that 85% of the data were
discarded from the South American eclipse due to "accidental error", i.e.,
it contradicted Einstein's scale constant. By a strange coincidence, the 15%
of the "good" data were consistent with Einstein's scale constant. Somehow,
the stars that did not conform to Einstein's theories conveniently got
temporarily shelved - and the myth began.
So, based on a handful of ambiguous data points, 200 years of theory,
experimentation and observation were cast aside to make room for Einstein.
Yet the discredited experiment by Eddington is still quoted as gospel by
Stephen Hawking (1999). It is difficult to comprehend how Hawking could
comment that "The new theory of curved space-time was called general
relativityIt was confirmed in spectacular fashion in 1919, when a British
expedition to West Africa observed a slight shift in the position of stars
near the sun during an eclipse. Their light, as Einstein had predicted, was
bent as it passed the sun. Here was direct evidence that space and time were
warped". Does Hawking honestly believe that a handful of data points,
massaged more thoroughly than a side of Kobe beef, constitutes the basis for
overthrowing a paradigm that had survived over two centuries of acid
scrutiny?
The real question, though, is: "Where was Einstein in all this?" Surely, by
the time he wrote his 1935 paper, he must have known of the work of Poor:
"The actual stellar displacements, if real, do not show the slightest
resemblance to the predicted Einstein deflections: they do not agree in
direction, in size, or the rate of decrease with distance from the sun". Why
didn't he go on the record and address a paper that directly contradicted
his work? Why haven't the followers of Einstein tried to set the record
straight with respect to the bogus data of 1919?
What makes this so suspicious is that both the instruments and the physical
conditions were not conducive to making measurements of great precision. As
pointed out in a 2002 Internet article by the British Institute of Precise
Physics, the cap cameras used in the expeditions were accurate to only
1/25th of a degree. This meant that just for the cap camera uncertainty
alone, Eddington was reading values over 200 times too precise.
McCausland (2001) quotes the former Editor of Nature, Sir John Maddox: "They
[Crommelin and Eddington] were bent on measuring the deflection of lightÉ";
"What is not so well documented is that the measurements in 1919 were not
particularly accurate"; "In spite of the fact that experimental evidence for
relativity seems to have been very flimsy in 1919, Einstein's enormous fame
has remained intact and his theory has ever since been held to be one of the
highest achievements of human thought" (emphasis added).
It is clear that from the outset Eddington was in no way interested in
testing "Einstein's" theory; he was only interested in confirming it. One of
the motivating factors in Eddington's decision to promote Einstein was that
both men shared a similar political persuasion: pacifism. To suggest that
politics played no role in Eddington's glowing support of Einstein, one need
ask only one question: "Would Eddington have been so quick to support
Einstein if Einstein had been a hawk?" This is no idle observation.
Eddington took his role as the great peacemaker very seriously. He wanted to
unite British and German scientists after World War I. What better way than
to elevate the "enemy" theorist Einstein to exalted status? In his zeal to
become peacemaker, Eddington lost the fundamental objectivity that is the
essential demeanour of any true scientist. Eddington ceased to be a
scientist and, instead, became an advocate for Einstein.
The obvious fudging of the data by Eddington and others is a blatant
subversion of scientific process and may have misdirected scientific
research for the better part of a century. It probably surpasses the
Piltdown Man as the greatest hoax of 20th-century science. The BIPP asked,
"Was this the hoax of the century?" and exclaimed, "Royal Society 1919
Eclipse Relativity Report Duped World for 80 Years!" McCausland stated that
"In the author's opinion, the confident announcement of the decisive
confirmation of Einstein's general theory in November 1919 was not a triumph
of science, as it is often portrayed, but one of the most unfortunate
incidents in the history of 20th-century science".
It cannot be emphasised enough that the Eclipse of 1919 made Einstein,
Einstein. It propelled him to international fame overnight, despite the fact
that the data were fabricated and there was no support for general
relativity whatsoever. This perversion of history has been known about for
over 80 years and is still supported by people like Stephen Hawking and
David Levy.
Summary and Conclusions
The general public tends to believe that scientists are the ultimate
defenders of ethics, that scientific rigour is the measure of truth. Little
do people realise how science is conducted in the presence of personality.
It seems that Einstein believed he was above scientific protocol. He thought
he could bend the rules to his own liking and get away with it; hang in
there long enough and his enemies would die off and his followers would win
the day. In science, the last follower standing wins - and gets to write
history. In the case of Einstein, his blatant and repeated dalliance with
plagiarism is all but forgotten and his followers have borrowed repeatedly
from the discoveries of other scientists and used them to adorn Einstein's
halo.
Einstein's reputation is supported by a three-legged stool. One leg is
Einstein's alleged plagiarism. Was he a plagiarist? The second leg is the
physics community. What did they know about Einstein and when did they know
it? The third leg is the media. Are they instruments of truth or deception
when it comes to Einstein? Only time will tell.
The physics community is also supported by a three-legged stool. The first
leg is Einstein's physics. The second leg is cold fusion. The third leg is
autodynamics. The overriding problem with a three-legged stool is that if
only one leg is sawed off, the stool collapses. There are at least three
very serious disciplines where it is predictable that physics may collapse.
Science is a multi-legged stool. One leg is physics; a second leg is the
earth sciences; a third, biology; and a fourth, chemistry (e.g., cold
fusion). What will happen if, for the sake of argument, physics collapses?
Will science fall?

You've outdone yourself with this one Kramer. Everybody who has studied
relativity knows about the works of Lorenz and Poincaré. Einstein's work
was not simply a reproduction of the other works. Whether he was directly
influenced by them is not clear. He may likely have been indirectly
influenced by them, perhaps without even realizing it.

Einstein the greatest
Albert Einstein has been voted the greatest physicist of all time in
an end of the millennium poll, pushing Sir Isaac Newton into second place.
The survey was conducted among 100 of today's leading physicists.
"Einstein's special and general theories of relativity completely
overturned previous conceptions of a universal, immutable space and
time, and replaced them with a startling new framework in which space
and time are fluid and malleable," said physicist Brian Greene from
Columbia University, US, who participated in the poll for Physics
World magazine.

So did Shakespeare, so did Händel, so did Haydn. As Händel once said about
his large-scale musical "borrowings": "I found pebbles and made them into
diamonds".

I think I figured out why you are so damn dumb.
That's what physicists do. Einstein even said "I have stood on the
shoulders of giants." He was referring to Newton, et al. But he was the
first to connect the dots.
Besides, how "jewish" was Einstein, really?
Charles Darwin did not actually discover anything new. He merely
organized the research done to date into a coherent theory.
Theft is a legal term, dinglebrain. Theft involves taking something
that is legally the property of another. If those others had
copyrighted their ideas, we could call it theft.
As it is, we can't.
Charles Darwin did not discover anything new. He merely organized

By 'hardly ever disputed' he means 'among the 3 other idiots who

Here's a hint, braniac. Try to figure out why Lorentz didn't get it
right and Einstein did. The phrase 'ad hoc hypothesis' should come

The problem with idiots like you is that you think you understand

Prof. Dr. Ernst Heymann, Perpetual Secretary.
Le Coq, near Ostende,
April 5, 1933
To the Prussian Academy of Sciences,
I have received information from a thoroughly reliable source that the
Academy of Sciences has spoken in an official statement of "Einstein's
participation in atrocity-mongering in America and France."
I hereby declare that I have never taken any part in atrocity-mongering, and
I must add that I have seen nothing of any such mongering anywhere. In
general people have contented themselves with reproducing and commenting on
the official statements and orders of responsible members of the German
Government, together with the programme for the annihilation of the German
Jews by economic methods.
The statements I have issued to the Press were concerned with my intention
to resign my position in the Academy and renounce my Prussian citizenship; I
gave as my reason for these steps that I did not wish to live in a country
where the individual does not enjoy equality before the law and freedom to
say and teach what he likes.
Further, I described the present state of affairs in Germany as a state of
psychic distemper in the masses and also made some remarks about its causes.
In a written document which I allowed the International League for combating
Anti-Semitism to make use of for the purpose of enlisting support, and which
was not intended for the Press at all, I also called upon all sensible
people, who are still faithful to the ideals of a civilization in peril, to
do their utmost to prevent this mass-psychosis, which is exhibiting itself
in such terrible symptoms in Germany to-day, from spreading further.
It would have been an easy matter for the Academy to get hold of a correct
version of my words before issuing the sort of statement about me that it
has. The German Press has reproduced a deliberately distorted version of my
words, as indeed was only to be expected with the Press muzzled as it is
to-day.
I am ready to stand by every word I have published. In return, I expect the
Academy to communicate this statement of mine to its members and also to the
German public before which I have been slandered, especially as it has
itself had a hand in slandering me before that public.

only a few relatives there, all of whom have been comfortably in the

Don't know about King but your claim about Einstein is either a lie
or you're simply too stupid to understand what you've read, or
you're reading trash and believing it unequestioningly. Given the

In any case, Einstein didn't plagiarize anything.

Well, I did offer you a chance to retract before I took a look at it,
but you decided to bluster on. So here is my response.
I'm going to pay you the favor -- completely undeserved and obviously
wrong -- of treating this as if you wrote it. There's nothing in any of
your posts which suggest you have the depth (the very modest depth,
given all the errors and omissions) to do so.
The obvious first thing that needs to be said here is that -- on the
assumption that you actually wrote this, to any particular degree,
yourself -- that your "I-looked-it-up-in-Brittanica" level of
understanding shows through again and again, leading you to a number of
fundamental errors, which I will list below.
I mention this up front, because your attempt to distort the history
of science for your racist and antisemitic ends is just plain
immoral.
Worse, you start out by declaring your unabashed antisemitism. As has
already been pointed out to you, your explanation of the context of
Hitler's "Big Lie" is wrong. The rest is just boilerplate neo-Nazi
rah-rah of the shoot-yourself-in-the-foot kind, and I have snipped it.

Einstein's impact on modern physics is unmatched by that of any other
single individual, with the possible exception of Neils Bohr. Anyone who
has studied it -- even on an undergrad level, as I have -- will probably
come to the same conclusion. But that annoys the hell out of toy-Nazis
like you, so you have to do what toy-Nazis always do when reality gets
uncomfortable: cobble up a fantasy alternative history and pretend that
it's the _real_ truth.

A thesis statement. Unfortunately, your thesis falls apart on
examination, as I show below.

This probably says more about the conventional teaching methods
than it does about Einstein's aptitude. Notice that you make no
further reference to his education, intentionally implying that
he was merely a high school dropout.
Let's look at that letter a little more:
"I imagine myself becoming a teacher in those branches of the natural
sciences, choosing the theoretical part of them. Here are the reasons
which lead me to this plan. Above all, it is my disposition for abstract
and mathematical thought, and my lack of imagination and practical
ability."
So, far from portraying himself as inept mathematically, he records
that he actually has a mathematical, abstract predisposition. He's
ruling out, in other words, engineering and the arts, leaving
the theoretical natural sciences such as physics.

But in the meantime, he graduated from a secondary school in Aarau as a
teacher of mathematics and physics, another significant fact you omit,
presumably intentionally. Apparently Einstein was so inept at
mathematics that he was qualified to teach it.

"Supposedly" because it's true. How do we know it's true? Well, just to
idly give an example, the paper on Brownian motion, how was it received
in the community of professional physicists? Some indication of its
reception can be found in this fact: on the strength of the paper, the
University of Bern gave Einstein a doctorate in physics. Obviously, the
physics faculty at Bern was in a position to determine whether or not it
was plagiarism; obviously they determined it was not, and stuck the
little letters PhD after Einstein's name to prove it.
Surely, if Einstein was a high-school drop-out trying to swap a plagiarized
paper for a doctorate, the hardest people to hide that from would be
university physics faculty, right? But the faculty didn't say, "This
is stolen, Al." They said, "Congratulations, Dr. Einstein."
Funny how your little essay never bothers to mention that Einstein had a
doctorate in physics. You leave your readers with the impression that he
barely escaped high school. But lying to your readers is part of what
being a toy-Nazi is all about, right?

You're busily jamming words into Einstein's mouth here. Einstein was
aware -- of course -- that he was building on the work of others. Any
anybody who reads Einstein's papers is aware that he was building on the
work of others, so it's not like Einstein tried to somehow disguise it.
But building on the work of others is how science works, and your
stature as a scientist is determined by what you have _added_ to the
structure. And even a quick look at the history of science shows that
Einstein added many new and innovative ideas.
It's also simply wrong, as I have shown above, to argue that Einstein
had "no real education."

Here you're simply hoping that your audience is as inept in
the history of science as you are. The founding of a completely
new science is an incredibly rare thing. Einstein was addressing
problems others before him had tried with varying degrees of
success, and like other scientists before him, used the work
of scientists still earlier. The reputation of any scientist
is measured, not by the mass of knowledge in his field, but by
what he has added to that pre-existing mass of knowledge.

This is perhaps Einstein's greatest contribution to science, one that
almost a hundred years later, mingy little antisemites and neo-Nazis
would try to deny but the rest of the world justly celebrate.

... actually, no, because by the equivalence principle it had to reduce
to Newtonian physics under nonrelativistic conditions. What it did was
extend Newton's laws of motion to take into consideration laboratory
results Newton's laws alone couldn't handle.

And "The Raven," of course, was written by Edgar Poe. Unless you
have a clue, of course, and know that he went by the name Edgar
Allan Poe. Just like James Clerk Maxwell went by the name James
Clerk Maxwell, and only idiots don't know it.
Maxwell's 1873 calculations of the speed of propagation of
electromagnetic waves didn't address the idea of inertial frames at all.
It described the behavior of light in a stationary inertial frame. He
did not predict the constant speed of light independent of the motion of
the inertial frame -- in other words, you're taking attributing the
wrong result to Maxwell.

You get the sequence on Michelson-Morley a bit mixed up here. The reason
that Michelson and Morely had "reached the conclusion" that c was
invariant was because they had done an experiment which had demonstrated
it. They weren't working from theory but from experimental data. They
were hoping to find a universal coordinate system -- a universial "up"
and "down" -- relative to which the earth was moving. Instead they found
a result which was utterly inexplicable to them, which is that there
_is_ no universal "up."
What it was up to Einstein to do was take a system of physics which
seemed to pretty much have everything solved and correlate it with this
one, singular, inexplicable but undeniable result.

But this is what prompted the paper in the first place -- trying to
explain this bizarre result without throwing out the rest of physics.
The effect may have been noted 27 years before, but an explanation was
not. See the difference? Rainbows were known for millenia before Snell's
laws of refraction explained how they were made. The bizarre motion of
the planets in the sky was known for millenia before Kepler figured out

And only now do you get to the M-M experiment. As I noted before,
the experiment came first, then the conclusion about the invariance

No, this is not the theory of relativity, if it's still referring to the
motion of bodies in "the ether," or "through the ether or across it."
FitzGerald had found another puzzle piece -- and is honored for it in
every modern physics text as co-creator of the "Lorentz-FitzGerald
contraction -- but it was still up to Einstein to put all the pieces in
place.
Here's how one of my physics textbooks puts it (Sears, Zemansky, and
Young, fifth edition, chapter 14, "Relativistic Mechanics"):
"Newton's laws of motion are valid only in inertial frames, but they are
valid in _all_ inertial frames. Any frame moving with constant velocity
with respect to an inertial frame is itself an inertial frame, and all
such frames are equivalent to expressing the basic principles of
mechanics [i.e. Newton's laws of motion]. The laws of mechanics are the
same in every inertial frame of reference.
"Einstein proposed in 1905 that this principle should be extended to
include _all_ the basic laws of physics. This innocent-sounding
proposition has far-reaching and startling consequences, a few of which
have already been mentioned. If the principle of conservation of
momentum is to be valid in all inertial systems, for example, the
definition of momentum, for particles moving at speeds comparable to the
speed of light, must be changed from mv to mv/(1-v^2/c^2)^(1/2). Even
more fundamental are the modifications needed in the kinematic aspects
of motion, as we shall see. Nevertheless, Einstein's _principle of
relativity_, as it has come to be called, is now accepted as an
essential requirement for a physical theory. The principle of relativity
states that _the laws of physics are the same in every inertial frame of
reference._"
Note particularly that last sentence. The Lorentz-FitzGerald
contraction, otherwise called the Lorentz transformations, are _part_ of
relativity theory, because they describe relativistic mechanics, but
they are not relativity theory itself. You confuse the part for the
whole.

But again, they were studying something specific, the propagation of
light waves through the ether. Einstein recognized that the equations
described much, much more than just what Lorentz and FitzGerald thought
they did.

As I mentioned above, Lorentz was treating electromagnetic waves, which
he regarded as massless. When you're taking relativity and mass or
momentum, you're talking Einstein, not Lorentz. But since the idea used
Lorentz work as a starting point, the equations describing spacial
relativistic coordinates are still called the Lorentz transformation --
Einstein clearly giving credit where it's due.

Except for the main revolutionary idea itself, the invariance
of all the basic laws of physics regardless of the inertial
frame chosen.

Again, another piece of the puzzle, a puzzle which it still fell
to Einstein to put together into one coherent whole, thanks to
his central insight.
Now you try the "everybody knows I'm right" rhetorical trope.

Except, of course, that he wasn't. Your basic argument is just
nonsensical. You're arguing that the works of the world's leading
pre-Einstein physicists were so unknown that Einstein could pilfer them
at will. Then how did they get to be the world's leading pre-Einstein
physicists in the first place, if nobody knew what they wrote?

Except, again, that they hadn't. And I think you know it, which is why
you keep your discussion of Brownian motion down to a single paragraph.
Because if you went into much more detail than that, you'd have to
describe what Einstein's doctorate-deserving breakthrough was.
The Boltzmann constant related the average kinetic energy of a molecule
in a gas to the temperature of the gas. Since Einstein's analysis of
Brownian motion involves a statistical analysis of the motion of gas
particles as _part_ of his result, it's no surprise that the Boltzmann
constant shows up, despite all your efforts to make it look like
Einstein is plagiarizing. (By that standard, since Newton came up with
the gravitational constant G, any calculation using G must be suspected
of having been plagiarized from Newton.)
Einstein's work was to analyze the "random walk" a barely visible
particle of soot makes ("Brownian motion") as it is buffeted from all
sides by molecules of air. By statistically analyzing the motion, he
could draw conclusions about the momenta of the molecules hitting the
soot particle. In effect, Einstein had provided the first experimentally
verifiable observation of the existence of molecules which also allowed
some determination of their scale. Hence the title of his doctoral
dissertation, _On a new determination of molecular dimensions_.
Neither Brown, Gibbs, nor Boltzmann tried to do this analysis. It is
original with Einstein.

Thompson was famous for measuring the ratio e/m of the electron.

... and by this time it's hard not to reach the conclusion that you're
just throwing words around that you don't understand. "A mass
relationship" -- what was the one Poincare postulated, and where did he
publish it? Just saying there is a relationship doesn't cut the mustard
among physicists -- you also need to define what the relationship is.

But you are being so amazingly vague that I can no longer tell if you're
simply trying to cover things up -- like you did with Einstein's
doctorate -- or simply haven't the foggiest of what you're talking
about. _What_, specifically, was Hasenhoehrl's "idea of the equivalence
of mass and energy"? Did he predict a linear relationship? An
exponential one? A quartic or cubic or x^pi or any of a zillion other
incorrect solutions?

He had a brain. That was his laboratory. That's the interesting thing
about theoretical physics -- in some cases a brain is all you need.

What's outlandish about it? In 1905 almost nothing was known about
radioactivity except that it existed. In 1905 they hadn't even
postulated the atomic nucleus yet, let alone protons and neutrons -- the
neutrons wouldn't show up in Cavendish's lab for another quarter
century. So what exactly is the point of your mockery?

Which it would be -- in this form, trying to measure the change
in weight of some radium and correlate it with the cast-off
radiation, since the difference in mass would be too small to
measure by any means available. Which is why, I gather,
Einstein says uses a subjunctive future tense -- perhaps it
will someday be possible to measure the difference.

If he received the 1922 Nobel prize, it was indeed unjust, because
it was 1921 when he won it.

But Planck had postulated quanta to explain a completely different
phenomenon, the black-body radiation paradox. Although Planck had
postulated the photon, it was up to Einstein to formulate its behavior
in relation to the photoelectric effect. There's a reason the Einstein
photoelectric equation is called the Einstein photoelectric equation.
But what level of scientific understanding can we expect from a neo-Nazi
who thinks a black body is what you have left after a lynching?

Because he was trying to explain one particular effect -- the
photoelectric effect -- which was otherwise inexplicable, and it just
happened to involve light energy. And it just happened to be confirmed
by experiment, and it just happened to be right, and it just happpened
to earn Einstein a Nobel.

As were all but a handful of mathematicians in the world, since it was
so new. Keep in mind that Einstein was so highly regarded by this time
by his peers that in 1914 the Germans -- remember them? -- offered him a
research position at the Prussian Academy of the Sciences _along with_ a
position (without teaching duties) at the University of Berlin. What
else did they offer him? The Kaiser was establishing research institutes
around the country. Guess who they asked to direct the Kaiser Wilhelm
Institute of Physics in Berlin?

So you say but do not prove. The closest you come to providing
even a shred of evidence is to repeat the not-at-all-secret
fact that Hilbert anticipated once facet of general relativity.

False. But nice try. There's more to general relativity than
the field equations Hilbert anticipated. Anyway, the next bit

One of the reasons that "Aryan science" remains even today a
laughingstock -- because at the same time they were holding their big
rallies promoting how wonderful "Aryan science" was, a huge fraction of
their best scientists were being chased out by Nazi nuttiness -- more
than a few chased straight to Los Alamos, where they would in a fair
square race beat the pants of the inept Nazi atomic bomb project.

And at this point the essay degenerates into the same old jewbait

... and, well, it goes on in High Nazi Rant mode for a few more
crapperfuls, but by now my point is made. (Although again I note that
Oppenheimer wasn't a communist, as much as the toy-Nazis wish he was.)
Now, at this point, a reader might reasonably ask, why did I go to all
this trouble to wipe out what was clearly a chunk of coagulated
cluelessness? First, it was fun brushing the dust off my old modern
physics text (_Elementary Modern Physics, 3rd Edition_ by Weidner and
Sells) and taking another look at the birth of modern physics. It's also
fun to shoot fish in a barrel every now and then, KCloudd's barrel was
smaller than his fish, and the fish themselves were all carrying
placards saying "Please Shoot Me!"

The reason the USA leads the world in standard of living and areas like

We have free education through the high school level. Personally, I

not everybody is academically suited to college.
If I had it to do over again, I wouldn't even go to college.

I hope you haven't seen it as bragging. I find it more pleasant to
exchange views with people if I know something about them and they know
something about me.
I am part Sephardic Jew in the distant past. One of my ancestors on my
mother's side, Jacob Nunhez, a descendant of Jews who had been kicked out
of Spain, lived in Portugal during the 1760s. He responded to a request
for prison guards in Georgia, which was then primarily a penal colony.
But, like many so-called African Americans, I have African (many strands,
but slave ships kept very poor records, few of whgich even survive, so I
do not know where from), English (hence my surname  an Englishman named
Holman owned and was a blood relative [due to the hany-panky that
slaveowners practiced with slave women] of my paternal grandfather's
grandfather when he was released from slavery and, as was the custom at
the time, he took his former owner's surname; another English branch of
the family goes back to James Oglethorpe, a major figure in the colonial
history of Georgia, whose daughter married one of Nunhez's sons), Dutch
(my paternal grandmother was born in Sint Maarten and was a Dutch/Carib
creole), and American Indian (mostly Seminole) ancestry as well.
More important than that bit of Sephardic Jewish ancestry, though, was my
education in the US. I attended a high school that was about 95% Jewish,
had Holocaust Education in the late 50s, and in the 1970s, long after I
had left, acquired a Holocaust museum and research center
(http://www.bxscience.edu/holocaust/Holocaust.htm). Many of my fellow
classmates, including one who was born in the Warsaw ghetto and another

camp, were themselves or the children of Holocaust survivors. As I have
written here before, one of the most exciting experiences of my high
school career was following the trial of Adolf Eichmann during the spring
of 1961. At university, Cornell, most of my friends and many of my
teachers were Jews. Most of my former classmates have gone into academia,
and at least two of them are now leading scholars in Holocaust studies.

facts on your claim, or, in the absence of that, how you came to that
conclusion.

The turkey operates by a flagrant double standard. He objects when

Jews and make claims about us without a shred of evidence to support
it. Most people are ashamed to be ignorant. This clown is proud of it.

Because they, like you, lie about the evidence, Like you did about
the Weisenthal quote.
However, as much as it's fun to rub your nose in the lies you post
here regularly, your 'rebuttal' is actually beside the point
here. My comment was about you not knowing any *real* history, that
is, your only knowledge of the subject comes from denier websites.
Clearly I'm correct to say this. Whether you argue that denier
websites are a reliable source of information is completely
irrelevent. Whether reliable or not it is nevertheless true that
they are *your only source*, as you've made abundantly clear in this
last week.
So when you claim that you've read 'normative history,' that's just
another of your lies, like your lie about what Weisenthal said.
What you've read is what the deniers websites *say* is the normative
account, but since you haven't *actuall read* the account on your
own you don't know whether the denier websites are telling the
truth. And, as we consistently show, they aren't. But you're too
stupid to learn that and so you keep posting their trash as if it
gave a fair accounting of what the normative account actually says.
Which means that I've won this debate on the larger issue: you're
too ignorant to 'criticize' the normative account because you don't
know it.

Last time you commented on by "breasts". I'll bet you didn't do very

No, stupid. You quoted an article from a deniers website that

quotes aren't the same.
Which means that the article you posted lied about the contents of
