moorglade,

People forget that Einstein was one of the founders of Quantum theory. He discovered the photon, and the process of stimulated emission that later became the basis for lasers. He only parted from the quantum theorists when they abandoned realism and stated that the particle has no properties when it is not being observed.

Regards,
Dick
