                  I understand instead of using his E string, he squared the measure of his C string... you know E = mC(squared)

                    That’s how my face would look too after being with Einstein.
                    Look at his teacher's face. Seems to me his expression says,
                    “ I didn’t learn a single thing in school!”

                            That, sadly, is amazingly similar to my situation, except for the chair of mathematics job, and having theories.
