   Heard the interview while driving in my car. It was great radio and a nice conversation so time went fast and I was at my destination in no time. I really believe in radio as a medium next to all the “new” media.

   Thanks Diederik and Henk. If the subject is interesting I am always amazed at how fast time flies by. here is a funny anecdote of Einstein trying to explain relativity:

   EINSTEIN was asked by his hostess at a social gathering to explain his theory of relativity. Said the great mathematician,
   “Madam, I was once walking in the country on a hot day with a blind friend, and said that I would like a drink of milk.”
   “Milk?” said my friend, “Drink I know; but what is milk?”
   “A white liquid,” I replied.
   “Liquid I know; but what is white?”
   “The colour of a swan’s feathers.”
   “Feathers I know; what is a swan?”
   “A bird with a crooked neck.”
   “Neck I know; but what is this crooked?”
   “Thereupon I lost patience. I seized his arm and straightened it. “That’s straight,” I said; and then I bent it at the elbow. “That’s crooked.”
   “Ah!” said the blind man, “Now I know what you mean by milk!”
