I'm curious and confused about something you wrote. Did you say that Hitler didn't like Einstein because of his ridiculous head? That's a strange reason to want to kill someone!

They found nothing special about his brain. Of course, that doesn't mean there was nothing special about it -- just that they couldn't find it!
