Al was up for consideration for a Nobel Prize in 1921, the year before he actually got it, but in 1921 the committee declared that none of the nominees was worthy of the award. A year later, although nothing remarkable had changed in Einstein's work, the committee honored him with the award.
Einstein got the Nobel Prize for his observation of the photo-electric effect. Three others, most notably J.J. Thompson, had previously observed and written about the phenomenon. Einstein's explanation for the effect turns out to have been incorrect.
Regarding Al's Theory of General Relativity, it is largely plagiarized two previous scientists'work, Lorentz (for his "transform") and Henri Poincaré, for his disk model.
Einstein regularly had Charles Proteus Steinmetz check his equations and Steinmetz reported to his friends that Einstein regularly made mistakes that he was left to fix.
Einstein's Nobel was of the same ilk as Obama's--a foray into public relations. Goebbels may have had the Einstein Nobel and the related axiom of "Einstein [being] a genius" in mind when he penned his infamous, “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it."
Tell me more about Paul and John being offed.
Not sure where you pull your info from but it’s all very bizarre imho
Time does not permit me to post much to FR anymore. But your post warrants a response. Your relentless degeneration of Einstein and his achievements is baffling and a bit disturbing.
Einstein was called a "fuzzy-haired idiot" by Nikola Tesla.
In many of Tesla's writings it is apparent that he is jealous of Einstein's achievements. Tesla did not learn Tensor Calculus so he could not comprehend the mathematics of General Relativity. Tesla only had two years of formal university education.
Einstein and Tesla were both geniuses.
Einstein's General Theory of Relativity is recognized as one of the greatest intellectual achievements in history.
When the General Theory was published all of the great scientific minds, Planck, Bohr, Eddington, et al recognized the greatness of Einsteins achievement. It is said that scarcely a dozen people could understand the difficult mathematics involved.
In 1905 Einstein published three papers any of which would have garnered a Noble Prize. His published output is all available at Princeton online. He produced an amazing amount of work.
I have many books on Tesla and Einstein. Both are fascinating men. I admire them both. The mathematics of Relativity is Tensors. Einstein's Field equations are the result of pure genius. Anyone who has studied the details and derivations of Einstein's Field Equations are humbled.

Anti-semitism played a strong role in not awarding Einstein the prize in 1921. Also, the incredible complexity of Relativity made some on the Nobel Committee hesitant.
Your relentless slandering of Einstein is quite bizarre. Notwithstanding your hateful comments on Einstein, the vast majority of theoretical physicists and mathematicians today would tell you that a genius on the level of Einstein only happens once every 200-300 years.
Thank you for your time.
