One-fifth Germans like to dine with Einstein
(Xinhua)
Updated: 2005-01-21 15:13 One fifth of the Germans want
to have dinner together with Albert Einstein if they had the chance, a new
survey released on Thursday said.
Einstein is German's most favorite companion for dinner among eleven
celebrities in the history, the survey conducted by the TV broadcaster Discovery
Channel said.
Pupils and young people are especially enthusiastic at the genius physician
who was born in Germany and lived in Berlin for 19 years before he fled the Nazi
rule to the United States in 1933.
People aged over 60 said they would rather choose former German chancellor
Konrad Adenauer as their companion to dine.
Adenauer ranked three in the "favorite dinner companion" list with Leonardo
da Vinci coming to the second place.
A series of activities will be held in Germany this year to commemorate
Einstein's 50th anniversary of passing away and the 100th anniversary of the
coming into being of his General Theory of Relativity.
