University Makes 80,000 Einstein Documents Publicly Available

orgelspieler writes "The Hebrew University of Jerusalem has scanned in some 80,000 of Albert Einstein's documents. According to the university's press release, the documents cover more than just scientific matters. The broad range of subjects include his solution to the Jewish-Arab conflict, a postcard to his mother, and a letter from one of his mistresses asking for assistance getting to America. Some documents have been translated and annotated and are completely searchable."

    Well, the exact number depends on your frame of reference.

    It's a damn good thing there are no women who understand technology and read Slashdot to be offended by you.
