Albert Einstein and his driver
funny urban legend about Albert Einstein that he had heard years ago but could not remember until I saw in www.otexto.net .
Certainly as they say here is very good, and can easily pass as true, hence its character of urban legend.
best thing is that it is applicable to other characters.
is said that in the 20's when Albert Einstein began to be known for his theory of relativity, was often requested by the universities to give lectures. Since he did not like driving and yet the car will was very easy to get around, hired a driver. After several days of travel, Einstein told the driver how boring it was to repeat the same thing over and over again.
"If you want," he told the driver, "I can replace him overnight. I have heard his lecture so many times that I can recite word for word. "
Einstein spoke and before the next place, they exchanged clothes and Einstein took the wheel. They reached the room where the conference would be held as none of these scholars knew Einstein, the deception was discovered.
The driver stated he had heard the conference to repeat many times to Einstein. Eventually, a professor in the audience asked a question. The driver had no idea what could be the answer, but had a stroke of inspiration and replied:
"The question to me is so simple that I will let my driver, which is at the end of the room, the answer "
