One day, Einstein is called on to speak at an important science conference…
On the way there, he tells his driver, “I’m sick of all these conferences… ”
“I always say the same things over and over!”
The driver agrees, “You’re right, as your driver, I have attended all of them… ”
“and even though I don’t know anything about science, I could give the conference in your place.”
Noticing that his driver looks a lot like him, Einstein says, “That’s a great idea!… ”
“Let’s switch places then!”
So, they switch clothes, the driver dressed as Einstein and Einstein dressed as the driver.
As soon as they arrive, the driver goes on stage and starts giving the usual speech, while the real Einstein attends it…
In the crowd, there is a scientist who wants to impress everyone…
so, he thinks of a very difficult question to ask Einstein, hoping he won’t be able to respond…
The scientist then stands up and interrupts the conference by posing his question.
The whole room goes silent, holding their breath, waiting for the response…
The driver looks at him, dead in the eye, and says…
“Sir, your question is so easy… ”
“that I’m going to let my driver reply to it for me.”
