Did you know that:
- After the death of the first president of Israel in 1952, the Israeli government decided to offer the post of second president to Albert Einstein. He refused.
- One week before his death, Einstein signed his last letter. It was a letter to Bertrand Russell in which he agreed that his name should go on a manifesto urging all nations to give up nuclear weapons. It is fitting that one of his last acts was to argue, as he had done all his life, for international peace.
- Einstein was cremated at Trenton, New Jersey at 4 pm on 18 April 1955 (the day of his death). His ashes were scattered at an undisclosed place.
- That there is a sweatshop-free navy t-shirt with Einstein collage image available in sizes S-XXL for $18.00 each.
Yup, buy it here.
