Sorry I'll stop. Its not about what Einstein said per say, we are talking about relativity which is one of my favorite subjects.

The Earth is a very jagged irregular fairly-round glob of stuff with lots of protrusions and indentations which has upon it, all things considered, some pretty nice places to live for the time being.

Nobody really knows for how much longer those places, or any of it, will remain fairly nice places to live.

Stick to the facts, ma'am.

What goes up must come down.
And if it doesn't within four hours see a doctor.
