But is it atmospheric air, Monsieur Over 100 years ago, Albert Einstein grappled with the implications of his revolutionary special theory of relativity and came to a startling conclusion: mass and energy are one, related by the formula E = mc2. ALBERT EINSTEIN: Yes, but can she soar and dance like our dark souls Arthur Donovan They are now the same thing to us.
