    No, Albert Einstein wasn't a hoax. I don't see why you think Nikola Tesla being a genius makes Albert Einstein a hoax. They were both geniuses.

    I agree that Tesla was a genius.

    I heard this story about Einstein & a 'software' geek from India. They were on a domestic flight in USA, sharing side by side seats. Einstein had a great regard for Indian s/w professionals while the Indian (from india) regraded Einstein as god.

    Einstein proposed a 'bet' to kill time. He said "I will put a question & if you can't answer it, you give me $ 5. If I can't answer your question, well ... I'll give you $ 100 (reminded of his supreme intelligence, with justifiable pride)".

    Einstein asked "What is the distance from Earth to Moon? ". The Indian instead of saying 'I don't know', quietly pulled $ 5 bill & presented it to Einstein, who pocketed it.

    Einstein said "you ask now" to the Indian. Indian asked, "what is it that goes up on three legs & comes down on four legs?". Einstein thought about it for quiet awhile & said "I don't know". He gave the Indian $ 100. Then he asked him "what is it that goes up on three legs & comes down on four legs?". The Indian waved his head sideways like Indians do when they mean to say 'I don't know'. The Indian profited $ 95.

    Moral: Being a genius alone isn't sufficient, if you are dealing with an educated Indian.

    Source(s): I heard it in one of the talk shows.

    Yes and Thomas Edison was also a HOAX to and stole other people's ideas, like Nikola Teala for himself. The US government also stole Tesla's work for themselves and to this day keep it for themselves away from public use.
