The young man stepped through the doorway with an accompanying gust of air. To any non-regular, the stranger would have seemed relaxed and unassuming, but I could tell he was unfamiliar with the place and self-conscious by the way he briefly paused in the foyer to get his bearings, glancing skittishly from left to right. ...

When one thinks of Albert Einstein, what image manifests? His pipe, naturally. That's easy for pipesmokers, but most people unfamiliar with the benefits of the briar think of E = mc² first, then about Einstein's hair, and maybe his violin.
