Hi,

This reminds me of an anecdote related to Albert Einstein, which I once heard; don't know if it's true, but I tend to believe it. According the anecdote Einstein was at an conference were he was talking to someone (name?) and they had an interesting discussion.
At a certain moment the guest asked him for his telephone-number.
Allegedly Einstein said then: "I'm sorry but I don't have it with me."
And the guest was very surprised and said something like: "You being Einstein don't know your own telephone-number?" Einstein responded something like: "No, I usually don't call my own telephone-number, so I do no effort in trying to remember it"

Kind regards,

MoB

In another forum, I explained the nutty situation regarding the name of the company:

". . . It turned out the correct name is: "Defkalion Green Technologies S. A." Apparently that name simply slipped from Rossi's mind. He apologized. He can be absent minded. In my experience, scientists, engineers and programmers tend to be absent minded. Do not ever ask one of them to make travel arrangements, for example. You will be lucky to end up on the right continent. I am a programmer myself, and I tend to show up at the wrong airport at 9:00 pm for a flight that left at 9:00 am."
