Happy Birthday, Albert

Einstein on a bike in California
Yep. Today in 1879, in Ulm, Germany, Albert Einstein was born.

There's a nice poem here at Physics Buzz, Young Albert E. and the Miracle Year
By James Riordon:

Well, he thought and he thought and he thought a bit more,
He thought 'til the thoughts made his thinking parts sore.
And with a little statistics and persistence galore,
He thought of an answer not thought of before.

(It's hyperlinked and everything!)
(Hat tip Jen at Cocktail Party Physics)
