    <description><![CDATA[Your Chinese in relation to that two year old child beside you?  Yeah, relativity can suck.  But, we're glass-half-full people here at ChinesePod, right?  You'll know more Mandarin after this lesson than you did 15 minutes ago, so take heart and listen to this podcast on the theory of relativity.  And gloat where reasons for gloating can be found.  Einstein couldn't speak Chinese.  That two-year old can't tie his shoe.  So there.]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[年轻的时候我是一个非常讨厌数学的理科生。
像走钢丝那样我每次数学考试都差点不及格，
还不敢相信我这种人也勉强从工业大学毕业。
然而我在校内作文比赛里得过好几次一等奖，
这个事实恰恰证明我高考时可能选错了专业，
怪不得我现在从事着与自己专业无关的职业。
我父母曾开玩笑说他们白交了我四年的学费!

但是不管怎么样我好歹也算一个理科毕业生，
我还是很喜爱看科学特别是天文学方面的书，
对一般相对论或者超弦理论等话题很感兴趣，
为了获取最新信息每天访问国内外有关网站。
很可惜我天生对算术数学的过敏仍是老样子，
比方说我每次在公司碰到充满数据的文件时，
我对老板满面笑容地说我是文科生怎么办呢?

        <description><![CDATA[I just come back from a two week trip to Beijing where I kept hearing the following sentence over and over: "你儿子发音比你标准多了!"

That and the fact that I am really tired now might contriubute to that strange impression that this little intro is directly targeted at me...
;)

Now I will listen to the lesson which I expect to lay the groundwork for the "navigation at relativistic speed" show that I predicted as early as September 14th, 2006:
