Albert Einstein

When Albert Einstein was making the rounds of the speaker's
circuit, he usually found himself eagerly longing to get
back to his laboratory work.
One night as they were driving to yet another dinner,
Einstein mentioned to his chauffeur (a man who somewhat
resembled Einstein in looks & manner) that he was tired of
speechmaking.

"I have an idea, boss," his chauffeur said. "I've heard you
give this speech so many times, I'll bet I could give it
for you."

Einstein laughed loudly and said, "Why not? Let's do it!"

When they arrived at the dinner, Einstein donned the
chauffeur's cap and jacket and sat in the back of the room. The
chauffeur gave a beautiful rendition of Einstein's speech
and even answered a few questions expertly.

Then a supremely pompous professor asked an extremely
esoteric question about antimatter formation, digressing here
and there to let everyone in the audience know that he was
nobody's fool.

Without missing a beat, the chauffeur fixed the professor
with a steely stare and said, "Sir, the answer to that
question is so simple that I will let my chauffeur, who is
sitting in the back, answer it for me."
