65-year-old Albert Einstein letter found

[Still Waters]

A letter from Albert Einstein written almost 65 years ago has been discovered in a safe at a Brazilian school, according to reports.

A typed message, with the signature of the physicist and dated June 1951, was addressed to students at Colegio Anchieta in Porto Alegre in the south of the country.

The director of the school, which has 3,000 pupils, said he had heard of the letter since joining the college 40 years ago but had not looked for it until now.

This really is a message that he left for Anchietans, to motivate them to seek knowledge because he is a remarkable person within science,”

yep, the idea was there...but no good if locked away for all those years....did not seem to motivate the director to look for it at the time.
