A++++ Seller! I have been an eBay Buyer since its beginning (under a different irretrievable prior User name, unfortunately). Very relieved to still encounter increasingly rare to find Sellers who prove sensible pride in being decent honest and wanting to sell items in great condition at fair prices. Thank you! :^)

  • THEORY OF RELATIVITY

    I have always been a fan of Albert Einstein. His formula E=MC squared is so profound when you consider that Matter in the equation, is explained as the slowing down or consolidation of Energy. Granted in more recent times, the concept that the speed of light (C in the equation) is the fastest mode of travel has been challenged by concepts like wormholes and even the speed of thought itself. I wish I could sit down with Einstein and discuss some of these matters at length, but Mr. Lightman's novel is as close as I will ever come to doing that. This is areally brilliant piece of journalism.
