I just skimmed over this article, but it seems to be a nice find

I liked Bruni de la Motte's "East Germans lost much in 1989" because it's an interesting take on the other side of the unification... written by someone that suffered the consequences.

Yes! and I think a month or so ago it was brought to my attention that more than fifty years ago Albert Einstein would move from Germany to Princeton, NJ shortly after war broke out.

I didn't know that Kurt Gödel had moved to New Jersey too. Actually, I think both Einstein and Godel became friends...

that's more trivial data for your brain!

Enrique, do you happen to have 100 Authors Against Einstein in a digital format? I'd like to know what their beef is with the good old Bert.
