Glad I caught this one. I was just listening to NPR about Einstein. They said he used to

tell a parrot jokes to cheer it up. I liked that subtle "C2" reference and the humor.

I will bet that Einstein had a great sense of humor.

After all, you cannot suggest that the world's understanding of the Universe is wrong and not be able to take a joke.

From what I have heard, he faced a tremendous amount of criticism from his peers until they finally grasped what he was talking about.

He also sets a good example on how you need to perservere regardless on how long it takes other people to understand your viewpoint.

It is strange what posterity yields, from the mundane to the sublime. And it is funny. Great cartoon as usual.
