Abstract thinking. Sometimes 1+1 does NOT equal 2.

That is way beyond me lol...I had to read your post twice :)!  Einstein was indeed a genius (and probably a bit insane as well), but whatever works :)!  Thank you for blowing my mind first thing this morning :)!

Richard, There is a very very fine line between pure brilliance and insanity!!  Truly gifted and true geniuses are often mistaken for being insane.  We have a weather station clock on the wall in our living room that constantly has to be reset yet it's supposed to automatically sync and adjust but we're always having to reset the time. 

Richard - Well its about time! Let's not forget that space is actually warped as well! Ok, way out of my league now. Think I will go sell a house.

Is that something like that thing my Grandmother once told me about life being like a rolll of toilet paper... the closer you get to the end the faster it goes?

I think Tammy has the concept down.  Some concepts are unreal to me like the "i" in math. An imaginary number?  The square root of a negative?  My mind is simple so I will stick with the tp analogy!

LOL at Tammy. .

This is why one day. . time travel will be possible. .and we may even have it already. .living among us. not revealing themselves so we will not freak out. .

Possible suspects. .

If Albert thought it it's probably right on.....what I brilliant mind he had. Fascinating ideas!  LOL for Tammy:)

Brilliant... not that MY mind is LOL, and to Tammy - your grandma was a very smart lady because it is so true! Thanks for the mind stretcher today, Richard :)

hello Richard,

this IS fascinating! I was always amazed at Albert Einstein's "insanity"...

Thanks for sharing.

Richard, Thinking outside of the box makes eyebrows raise but geniuses generally don't care what others think and just keep on coming up with profound ideas that make others think they are nuts.

Terrific picture.   Imagine looking at a clock traveling away from you at the speed of light.  The hands of the clock would look like they weren't moving because you're seeing the same light.  The clock hands would appear to go backward if the clock travelled away from you faster than the speed of light.  That's an old example from college physics.  I'll stick to RE sales.

Einstien and others like him come up with ideas without the aide of computers and they were very accurate.  We don't have the skills they had in today's world.

Richard- Most of your post went whizzing over my head! It's not you... it's me.  I have a hard time grasping the concept of time and alternate universes and time warps, and so on.  I guess it comes from watching "Lost" and "Fringe", and for the life of me I still can't figure out "The Lake House."  (if you haven't seen it, rent it and if you can figure out the "time" factor.. I don't want to know.  It will just give me an inferiority complex.) LOL
