LOL But my Grandad was something of a comedian, and his cousin may have, or
may not have, gone to America, and became an ever bigger comedian and even got a
day named after him, and sometimes I just kind of follow in his footsteps :-)

Hey, you have got Einstein on your web-page and I quote:
Time and space are relative to the motion of an observer and they are not
independent of each other. Time and space are connected to make four-dimensional
spacetime (three dimensions for space and one dimension for time). This is not
that strange---we often define distances by the time it takes light to travel
between two points. For example, one light year is the distance light will
travel in a year. To talk about an event, you will usually tell where (in space)
and when (in time) it happened. The event happened in spacetime.
and:
Special Relativity also predicts that matter can be converted into energy and
energy in to matter. By applying Newton's second law of motion to the energy of
motion for something moving at high speed (its ``kinetic energy''), you will
find that energy = mass × (speed of light)2. More concisely, this is Einstein's
famous equation, E = mc2. This result also applies to an object at rest in which
case, you will refer to its ``rest mass'' and its ``rest energy'', the energy
equivalent of mass.
Hey, didn't I tell them that matter can be converted into energy and energy in
to matter? But they just go on quoting what they were taught without giving it
any thought. Aberdeen Angus and his pals probably never read anything of what
Einstein actually wrote. As for Newton, they probably don't know who he was.
